Dem gov recriminalizes drug possession despite voter referendum after overdose deaths, crime surge in Oregon

Dem gov recriminalizes drug possession despite voter referendum after ...
Quick Glance: Oregon Governor Signs Law Recriminalizing Drug Possession
  • Oregon's Democratic Governor, Tina Kotek, signed a law that recriminalizes the possession of small amounts of drugs, putting an end to an initial experiment with decriminalization.

  • The new law makes personal drug possession a misdemeanor punishable by up to six months in jail and encourages treatment options as an alternative to criminal penalties.

  • According to Kotek, the success of the law relies on close coordination between courts, police, prosecutors, defense attorneys, and local mental health providers to achieve the intended goals.

  • The changes will be effective on September 1 after Oregon Democrats shifted their stance on decriminalization due to pressures from the fentanyl crisis and implementation issues.
