California lawmakers are pushing forward with more than a dozen bills aiming to address the fentanyl crisis ahead of a critical deadline this week. Those include some that would impose harsher prison sentences for dealers. Legislators in the Assembly and Senate debated measures yesterday as they tried to wrap up several hundred pieces of legislation before Friday. It’s the last day a bill can pass out of its original chamber and get a chance to become law later this year. The majority of the 16 fentanyl bills that advanced this past week in California focused on education, prevention and treatment of fentanyl overdose.
