Oregon Recriminalized Drugs. Let's Talk.
Переглядів 5873 місяці тому
In 2020, Oregon voters overwhelmingly approved Ballot Measure 110, making Oregon the first state in the U.S. to decriminalize possession of small amounts of all drugs while expanding addiction services and social supports. In 2024, Oregon lawmakers recriminalized drug possession and rolled back Measure 110 after an intense, well-funded disinformation campaign. We talked with Kassandra Frederiqu...

Переглядів 677 місяців тому
Overdose deaths are a policy failure. There are proven interventions like overdose prevention centers being blocked on the state and federal level. State legislatures and governors, like NY Governor Hochul, must follow the lead of Rhode Island and Minnesota and authorize overdose prevention centers at the state level. Our NY State Director Toni Smith-Thompson speaks out at NY Opioid Settlement ...

    Been on methadone 14 years. It has saved my life as well. Went to jail a couple times and detoxed. That was fun! Also quit twice cold turkeyon my own during my first few years. It was easier in jail. Im at 120mg. and I dont want to die taking methadone.

    At 13 y/o I moved in with my mother who was on methadone. She would nod off ALL day, sometimes with cigarettes. There were about 5,000 burn holes from her cigs around the house. Sometimes her blanket that she was using would almost catch on fire and I would have to run to put it out while she still basically slept. That’s methadone.

    Please stop listening to liars and do your own research. Here are some facts about hero Joe Biden. Biden was the chief architect of mass incarceration and the War on Drugs, which disproportionately targeted Black Americans: Biden admitted he is directly responsible for the mass incarceration policies of the 1980s and 1990s, authoring the 1994 crime bill which decimated Black communities. Biden authored the legislation which sentenced Alice Johnson to life in prison for a first-time drug offense. President Trump commuted her sentence in 2018. Biden worked with segregationist Senator Strom Thurmond to pass laws incarcerating Americans caught with a quarter-sized amount of crack cocaine. Biden voted to extend minimum penalties for people under 21 charged with selling marijuana, and introduced the civil forfeiture legislation which allows the government to seize assets of citizens accused of drug crimes. Biden helped write the Anti-Drug Abuse Act, which created the 100:1 crack cocaine sentencing disparity and disproportionately targeted minority communities.
