-11 Republican senators and one Independent in the state are urging a special legislative session to address the drug addiction crisis and overturn the effects of the controversial bill.
The measure, passed by voters in 2021, eliminates criminal penalties for possessing small amounts of illegal drugs. The senators, in a letter to the governor, express the urgency to enact changes immediately rather than waiting for the regular session in February. They argue that Oregonians believe Measure 110 has exacerbated addiction, homelessness, and crime.-
