senate 02/12/2025 - 119th Congress
We're working to regulate xylazine by classifying it under Schedule III of the Controlled Substances Act, aiming to control its misuse while allowing legitimate veterinary applications. By doing so, we seek to address the rising prevalence of its illicit use and related health risks without impeding its approved uses for animal care.

A bipartisan effort to rein in xylazine? Maybe there is hope for Washington cooperation.
