Ivan’s Law, introduced in the Washington State House by Goldendale Representative Gina Mosbrucker, has won bipartisan approval in that chamber. The bill is named after a 24-year-old Yakama tribal member who took his own life while in jail in Klickitat County. After hearing many stories from citizens on the impact of fentanyl, Mosbrucker says her legislation begins with an educational outreach campaign. Ivan’s Law also would assist hospitals with the cost of fentanyl screening in emergency rooms and promotes effective intervention. The bill now moves to the Senate for further consideration.
