Episode Details

North Dakota Attorney General Drew Wrigley joins 43 others in urging Congress to pass the Combating Illicit Xylazine Act, aiming to schedule xylazine as a Schedule three controlled substance. Xylazine, a heavy sedative often mixed into street fentanyl, is causing concern due to its non-opioid nature, making Narcan ineffective. Fargo saw nearly 30% of overdose deaths involving xylazine last year, and its now present in all 50 states. Attorneys general emphasize the need for federal scheduling to combat this opioid evolution and prevent further harm.
