Summary

The bill adds a new offense that makes it illegal to knowingly have Schedule I, Schedule II narcotics, or marijuana while a child under 14 is present. It treats this as a distinct crime, separate from the underlying drug charge, and sets sentencing under existing criminal penalties. The measure also defines “solid substance” for clarity and repeals any conflicting statutes.
