New rules would require serial numbers on pill-making machines to fight illegal drug production.
This bill aims to make it harder to produce illegal pills by requiring manufacturers and sellers of pill-making machines to put serial numbers on them. These numbers would need to be reported to the Attorney General. It would also be illegal to remove or alter these serial numbers, or to deal in machines where the numbers have been tampered with.
Today, federal law does not require serial numbers on pill-making machines or their parts, making it hard to track them. If this bill passes, these machines and their key components would need permanent serial numbers, which must be reported to the Attorney General. It would also become illegal to tamper with these numbers or to deal in machines where the numbers have been altered.
