Fox Portland: Governor Signs Bill Recriminalizing Drugs in Oregon

EXCERPT:

FERRYMAN: “Oregon’s first-in-the-nation drug decriminalization law is being rolled back. Now that the governor has signed House Bill 4002, the Oregon House and Senate passed the bill to reinstate criminal penalties for the possession of small amounts of drugs last month. The bill creates an unclassified misdemeanor for people caught with small amounts of drugs, like fentanyl. It comes with a punishment up to six months in jail.”
