San Francisco is currently deliberating a new drug policy that focuses on prioritizing abstinence from illicit substances. Supervisor Matt Dorsey has put forth a proposal known as the “recovery first” approach, which has ignited a contentious debate within the city. While some are concerned that this approach may ostracize individuals who are not prepared to quit using drugs, others argue that San Francisco’s current drug policies are too lenient. Mayor Daniel Lurie is committed to addressing the fentanyl crisis that is plaguing the city. The proposal aims to shift the city’s focus towards promoting recovery and sobriety, particularly in light of the growing concerns surrounding the use of fentanyl and other dangerous drugs. This new policy has the potential to significantly impact how drug-related issues are addressed in San Francisco, with proponents believing that it could lead to a more effective and compassionate approach towards tackling substance abuse problems.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
