Local lawmakers wants to crack down on fentanyl

New Milford Senator Craig Miner plans to introduce several legislative proposals to address the fentanyl crisis in Connecticut. This package includes increased penalties for fentanyl sales, establishing guidance for school districts that decide to keep naloxone in their schools, providing naloxone to schools and raising awareness about the dangers of fentanyl. Miner says the sheer number of lives lost demand strong action, saying fentanyl is a deadly poison and it must be treated as such. According to the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, 2 milligrams of fentanyl, the size of a few grains of salt, can be a lethal dose.  Miner called for more awareness and stronger penalties to send a clear and powerful message that this is poison.
