OPINION | Drug decriminalization is being unfairly used as a scapegoat for politicians’ failures.

My no vote on HB 4002 wasn’t easy. There is A LOT that’s good in the legislation, but tossing people in jail without ensuring deflection and treatment for those who suffer addiction was a poison pill for me.

Oregonians expected real solutions from the 2024 legislature to the addiction and housing crisis in our communities. HB 4002 isn't a solution. It's going to inflict harm on countless Oregonians. Thank you, Representative @IamTravisNelson for saying #NOtoHB4002. #orpol #orleg
ALT Thank you Rep. Nelson for standing with our communities and voting NO on recriminalization. NO to HB 4002

If you believe that no one should have to get arrested to be connected to life-saving care, this is the moment to tell lawmakers you oppose HB 4002.
HB 4002 has its final public hearing today.
This is our last chance to speak out against HB 4002. Go to safetyandjustice.org/takeact…

#OrLeg is moving forward with HB 4002, a bill that would recriminalize possession of small amounts of drugs, leading to jail time for people who just need help.
HB 4002 has its final public hearing today. We need you write to your lawmakers now. safetyandjustice.org/takeact…

Watch this clip to hear #orleg Representative Tim Knopp state, "We don't believe officers do make decisions based on race."
This is counter to data that shows Black Oregonians "were 8.3 times more likely than whites to be in jail pending trial in 2019,"

Here is what our advocate has to say: "Under HB 4002, someone arrested, charged, and released back on the streets will find it more difficult to get housing, government assistance, jobs, and education due to a life-damaging criminal record…just for having an addiction.” #orpol
