Quiver AI Summary
On July 16, 2025, Senator Jon Husted (R-Ohio) announced the signing of the Halt All Lethal Trafficking (HALT) of Fentanyl Act into law by President Trump. Husted expressed that this legislation will empower law enforcement to combat drug trafficking and mitigate the impact of fentanyl-related overdoses, which accounted for 95% of opioid deaths in Ohio in 2023.
The bipartisan law makes the temporary class-wide scheduling of fentanyl-related substances permanent, addressing a loophole exploited by traffickers.
