Oregon Representative E. Werner Reschke is on a mission to repeal Measure 110.
In November 2020, Oregon voters passed by referendum Measure 110, or the Drug Addiction Treatment and Recovery Act. the measure legalized street drugs in Oregon and diverted funds to the Oregon Health Authority to treat addiction.
Many in the state feel the measure went off the rails with mismanagement of the funds and spurring a near-epic rash of open drug use. Representative Reschke is working to get Oregon Governor Kotek to call a special session of the Oregon Legislature to overturn the law and says every day it’s on the books, it is causing the addiction crisis, namely the Fentanyl epidemic, to increase.
