## Bill overview: provisions PRIA read

- Cocaine possession threshold set at 14 grams: mixed, low. The law sets a clear line for this cocaine possession offense. Having more than 14 grams meets this part of the statute; 14 grams or less does not under this part. The second clause in that section is repealed, so it no longer applies. This clarifies which cases can be charged under that rule.
