Committee advances 'Noah's Law' to increase penalties for adults who sell deadly synthetic opioids to minors The House Judiciary Committee gave SB 11-70 a do-pass recommendation after emotional family testimony and opposition from civil-rights advocates. The bill would trigger aggravated sentencing when an adult's drug sale to a minor is shown to have contributed to the minor's death and would classify certain cases as dangerous crimes against children.

Sen. Karen Warner is championing 'Noah's Law' to hold adults accountable for selling lethal synthetic opioids to minors, a response to the heartbreaking loss of her constituent's son.
