A bill for an act relating to the use of certain psychoactive substances under the religious freedom restoration Act.

Where it is in the process
Plain-English Summary

This bill would change Iowa's Religious Freedom Restoration Act to specifically include the use of psychoactive substances like psilocybin and peyote in religious ceremonies as part of religious practice. If passed, the state would have to show a very strong reason and use the least restrictive method if it wanted to prevent someone from using these substances for religious reasons.
