About This Event
Senate File 2013, later renumbered as SF 2192, was approved by the Justice Committee on February 4, 2026. It designates kratom, including the plant Mitragyna speciosa and its compounds mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine, as a Schedule I controlled substance under Iowa Code section 124.204(4). This action makes possession of kratom illegal, with escalating penalties for repeat offenses, effectively changing its status from PENDING to BANNED. The Legislative Services Agency's fiscal note for SF 2192, dated February 12, 2026, further details this designation. The Iowa House also passed a similar bill (HF 2133) on March 18, 2026, reinforcing the legislative intent to ban kratom.
