What this amendment would do

This amendment would add an authorization of appropriations, which is a provision that allows money to be spent, to the Controlled Substances Act.

The amendment would authorize the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration to receive necessary sums of money for each of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.

  • These funds are intended for prevention and harm reduction activities, particularly those addressing the demand side of addiction and the overdose crisis.

  • The funds would also be used for children's mental health.

  • Additionally, the money would support policies, programs, and practices aiming to minimize the health, social, and economic consequences of substance abuse.
