‘Snorting kits’ for drug users to be distributed in Portland despite Dem opposition: ‘Reckless’
Fox News
The county surrounding Portland, Oregon, is set to distribute “snorting kits" for drug users as a part of a harm reduction plan opposed by the city's Democratic mayor.
Patrick Hauf is a politics writer for Fox News Digital.
Democratic Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler announced his opposition to the county's plan, which he said encourages drug use.
"I adamantly oppose distributing paraphernalia to encourage using a drug that is the leading cause of death for Americans under 50 and responsible for 190 fatal overdoses a day in the US," Wheeler tweeted Friday.
