U.S Rep. French Hill of Arkansas’ 2nd congressional district sponsored legislation in the House that aims to provide easier access to a drug which reverses opioid overdose. It was passed on Wednesday and now goes to the Senate where he's optimistic about its passage.
In an interview with KUAR News, Hill, R-Little Rock, also spoke about the Jan. 6th congressional hearings, proposals to suspend gas taxes and inflation.
The Preventing Overdoses and Saving Lives Act 2.0 would allow doctors to prescribe naloxone alongside opioids to patients with pain or after surgery.
