The Washington Legislature finally passed a law to continue that crack, heroin, meth and fentanyl possession and use remain illegal. It was a close call; if no action was taken by June 1 drugs would have been wide open. Oregon did so two years ago and it's ugly.
The law they passed is cumbersome; an incredibly simple fix was available. But they did something.
But the Seattle Demos are mourning the lost opportunity. They wanted full legalization.
Fentanyl kills - the Demos want its use fully legal.
Heroin kills - the Demos want its use fully legal.
Methamphetamine ruins lives and families - the Demos want its use fully legal.
