The House schedule includes H.R. 2004. Its proposed study deadline runs from enactment, not a House vote.

The House's official schedule for the week beginning September 14, 2026 includes H.R. 2004, Tyler's Law, among measures that may be considered under suspension of the rules. A listing does not establish that the bill has passed.

The published House text would give the health secretary one year after enactment to complete a study of fentanyl testing in hospital emergency departments. It also addresses testing alongside other substances, including marijuana.

The study would consider testing costs, benefits, risks and patient privacy. Guidance would be due within six months after the study is completed.

Editorial clarification, September 14, 2026: The deadline is tied to enactment, not passage in one chamber. This report links the current floor schedule and its bill text and makes no claim that a new testing requirement is already law.
