Washington 14th District State Representative Gina Mosbrucker is sponsoring a bill to change knowingly possessing of fentanyl from a simple misdemeanor to a class C felony. The Goldendale Republican says the U.S. Centers for Disease Control now says overdose from fentanyl is the leading cause of death between the ages of 18 and 45. She says under the Washington State Supreme Court’s Blake decision last year, police can do almost nothing when encountering a fentanyl user. House Bill 1937 has been referred to the House Public Safety Committee, but no hearings have been scheduled as of yet.
