## Summary

**Compelled reporting by online providers to the Attorney General** is the bill's core change. It would create a detailed reporting regime for fentanyl, methamphetamine, counterfeit pills, and unauthorized handling of prescription opioids and stimulants, with timelines, required data fields, penalties, and privacy safeguards. - People on platforms: Certain account details and content such as messages, photos, IP addresses, and location could be passed to the Attorney General when a provider learns of qualifying drug activity. Providers must generally preserve reported content for 90 days while investigations proceed and the bill forbids compelled decryption and routine user monitoring. - Providers: Electronic communication and remote computing service providers would have to file reports within 60 days of acquiring qualifying knowledge and label discoveries as human or automated. Failure to report can trigger criminal fines up to $190,000 for an initial violation and civil penalties for knowingly false or incomplete reports. - Attorney General and police: The Attorney General would review reports, forward credible ones to federal, state, or local agencies, and must publish an annual report with totals, provider breakdowns, conviction outcomes, and other metrics. The bill bars law enforcement from submitting reports or arranging third-party submissions and taints evidence from such prohibited filings.
