Five NCAA women's basketball tournament games were played with different-length three-point arcs on either side of the court.

Oregon governor signs drug re-criminalization bill, reversing voter ballot measure

cnn.com/2024/04/01/politics/oregon-governor-drug-re-criminalization-bill/

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.
