Recriminalizing Addiction in Oregon

Host Karen James speaks with Babak Zolfaghari-Azar, Senior Policy Manager and Keely Nguyễn, Communications Manager with Partnership for Safety & Justice. As Oregon legislators prepare to recriminalize addiction in Oregon, PSJ will lobby at the Salem Capitol on Feb 14th for homes, healing and healthcare with a focus on Ballot Measure 110, passed by Oregonians in 2020, which decriminalized certain drugs and helped fund addiction treatment and services.
