Relating to creating the criminal offense of operating a premises for unlawful controlled substance consumption.
SB 2307 makes it a felony to knowingly operate a property (like a building or space) where people use illegal drugs, targeting owners, managers, or renters who allow such activity. The law specifically criminalizes actions like renting space for drug use, profiting from drug activity on premises, or making space available for drug consumption. It excludes legitimate medical settings, such as medication-assisted treatment centers with valid prescriptions. This bill, if passed, would impose second-degree felony penalties for violations while allowing prosecution under other applicable laws.
