Ban on Federal Funding for Drug Smoking Pipes in Treatment Programs.

This bill prohibits the use of federal funds designated for substance use disorder treatment to purchase or distribute pipes or cylindrical objects intended for smoking illegal scheduled substances. This means federally funded addiction treatment programs are restricted from providing such paraphernalia as part of their services. The goal is to prevent federal money from supporting the distribution of tools used for illegal drug consumption.
Key points
Federal money allocated for drug treatment cannot be used to buy or distribute pipes for smoking illegal drugs.
This change directly limits the scope of services offered by certain federally funded addiction and harm reduction programs.
