  1. Morgan Godvin led the #activism for #Oregon’s #Measure110, decriminalizing drug possession and redirecting funds to treatment and harm reduction.

    However, challenges like the rise of fentanyl and ideological pushback led to its repeal, reflecting broader punitive attitudes towards drug users. Godvin stresses that incarceration worsens addiction, advocating for compassionate, treatment-centric solutions over punitive measures.

But that hasn’t yet translated into an improved care network for a state with the 2nd highest rate of #substanceusedisorder in the US and ranked 50th for access to treatment.

  10. "The Labour Party do not believe we can solve the issue of drugs through criminal sanction against the user. The issue of decriminalisation of the person should and must be at the forefront of our approach. Addiction needs to be treated as a health issue, not a legal one."
