Fox News
Oregon, which became the first state in the country to decriminalize possession of a small amount of hard drugs, is reversing course and recriminalizing such possession.

The new law, HB4002, will give those caught with small amounts of hard drugs such as fentanyl, heroin, and meth the ability to choose between a charge of possession or treatment programs that would include being mandated to complete a behavior health program to avoid fines.
