Oregon's New Drug Policies

Join Prison Pipeline hosts Emma Lugo, Karen James, Doug McVay & Adam Carpinelli, as they discuss this past year’s decision by Oregon legislators to overturn Ballot Measure 110 which was overwhelmingly approved by Oregonians in 2020. Legislators passed HB4002 which recriminalized certain illicit drugs that were decriminalized with the passage of Measure 110.  Host Doug McVay, who has worked on drug policy reform for decades, leads the discussion about these controversial decisions and their implications.
