Eugene’s White Bird Clinic says its newest facility fills a gap in community services when it comes to treating addiction.

Just over three years since Oregon voters passed Ballot Measure 110, elected officials want to repeal key elements, blaming the law for open drug use and soaring overdoses. But it’s their own hands-off approach that isn’t working, advocates say.

In an hourslong public hearing, the ongoing debate over ending the state's decriminalization experiment, Measure 110, took center stage.

Local governments are trying to get lawmakers to reroute tens of millions of dollars currently paying for addiction services back to them. That has service providers up in arms.
