Efforts are underway to permanently ban synthetic drugs known as bath salts. In late January Attorney General Pam Bondi issued an emergency order making the drugs illegal in Florida. Now legislation to permanently ban the substances is moving in the state House. Representative Jimmy Patronis is sponsoring the bill.

“It’s definitely a problem and the results of what this chemical does to individuals has been well documented and it’s a harmful part of our society,” said Patronis.

Prior to the emergency ban, bath salts could be found on the shelves at head shops and even some gas stations.
