H.R. 2004

Tyler’s Law

Energy and Commerce Committee · Rep. Ted Lieu (D-CA)

15 September 2026 | Passed House (voice vote)

What's next: To the Senate (if and when it takes it up)

Summary: The bill would direct the Department of Health and Human Services to study how often hospital emergency departments currently test for fentanyl in overdose patients and what those tests cost, then use those findings to issue guidance on whether fentanyl testing should become a standard procedure for overdose cases. It would also require guidance on how to better inform clinicians about what substances they're testing for and how fentanyl testing might affect future overdose risk and patient health.
