HR 4105 United States House · 118th Congress

Stop Pills That Kill Act

HR 4105, the "Stop Pills That Kill Act," targets counterfeit fentanyl and methamphetamine substances marketed as legitimate products (like fake prescription pills). It amends federal law to specifically address these counterfeit substances and requires the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) to create a comprehensive plan within 180 days, focusing on enforcement, youth-focused education, and improving existing campaigns like "One Pill Can Kill." The bill mandates annual reports to Congress detailing seizures (especially of pill-form counterfeits), prosecution data, convictions, and prevention efforts related to these substances. These reports will include specific data on pill types, locations of seizures, and how campaigns can be adjusted to combat the spread of dangerous counterfeit pills.
