11:33Now PlayingThe Senate and House agreement to fund an effort to curb opioid addiction and its effects gained approval of key Senate and House members Monday, May 20. The agreement will be sent to the full bodies for final approval.
Under the plan, opiate manufacturers will be charged significantly higher licensing fees over the next five years to raise funds supporting prevention, child protection and outreach efforts.
Prior to a vote on the agreement, Representative Dave Baker, R-Willmar, and Senator Chris Eaton, DFL-Brooklyn Center, spoke passionately about the effort. Both Baker and Eaton lost children to opioid addiction.
