Oregon’s pioneering drug decriminalization hasn’t led many to seek help, as backers said it would The effort ‘was presented to the public as pro-treatment, but it has been a complete failure in that regard,’ says Keith Humphreys, a Stanford addiction researcher and former White House drug policy adviser. AP, Apr 5, 2022 SALEM,
Ore. — When
Oregon
voters
approved a
ballot
measure in
2020 to
decriminalize
hard drugs,
they were
told the
first-in-the-nation
effort would
also be a
way to
establish
and fund
addiction
recovery
centers to
offer those
who are
addicted
help rather
than
incarceration.

The San Francisco Mess Proves Decriminalizing Drugs Doesn’t Work The Federalist, Jan 21, 2020 President
Donald Trump
has
expressed willingness
to interfere in
the West
Coast’s
seemingly
intractable
“homelessness”
problem:
“Donald
Trump said
he might
‘intercede’
to ‘clean
up’
homelessness
in San
Francisco
and Los
Angeles,
noting that
world
leaders
‘can’t be
looking at
that.’” |
