The bill SB1614 proposes to amend the current law regarding the threshold amount for fentanyl and fentanyl mimetic substances. Under the existing law, the threshold is set at nine grams, but the new bill seeks to change this to a threshold of one pill. This modification aims to address the growing concerns surrounding fentanyl use and its associated risks.

The bill does not anticipate any fiscal impact on the state General Fund and is set to become effective on the general effective date. Overall, the key difference between the current law and the proposed bill is the significant reduction in the threshold amount for fentanyl from nine grams to one pill, reflecting a stricter stance on fentanyl-related offenses.
