#77: One Year After Oregon's Drug Decriminalization Measure 110 (Morgan Godvin)

Morgan Godvin joined me last week to talk about Oregon's Measure 110, which decriminalized all drugs around one year ago. In this powerful conversation, we discuss the results of decriminalization, the increase in overdoses nationwide, fentanyl(s) and how we can prevent them from flooding the streets, thefts of desperation, Medication Assisted Treatment success and the stigma that goes with using drugs like Methadone or Suboxone, the cost of doing time in prison, and much more. Morgan has tons of work available with an internet search. You can read her Marshall Project piece, "I thought Going to Jail would get me Clean: I was Dead Wrong." Morgan also published an article about Oregon's drug decriminalization efforts. She also came on my podcast last year to talk about her convictions, time in prison, and recovery after release: available here.Morgan also appeared on a recent episode of The Tamron Hall show.Support the show
