The dangers of drug use are very well-documented. Many people get introduced to drugs through folks they know or in environments they frequent.
A majority of drug addicts also start as individuals just wanting to try a substance and believing they can quit anytime they please. Unfortunately, it’s not always that manageable and users can quickly spiral into dependence.
One state that’s known for its struggle with drug addiction is none other than California. Public officials and civilians alike have called for leaders like Gov. Gavin Newsom to start cracking down on cases of people openly shooting up with drugs in the middle of the streets.
Earlier this week, the California governor revealed efforts his state will employ to crack down on the drug known as “tranq.”
A legislative approach
With the support of state officials, Newsom is throwing his weight behind laws that will penalize individuals for unlawfully selling this drug. Folks who misuse tranq will also find themselves in legal trouble, should the laws in question pass.
