Today, I traveled to San Diego to stand with Senator Catherine Blakespear and local health and safety experts in support of Senate Bill 936. There is NO safe recreational use for nitrous oxide. No valid purpose to sell in liquor stores, smoke shops and online.
As the first county in California to ban nitrous oxide, we responded to a growing public health crisis felt by our families, schools, hospitals, and law enforcement. Local neurologists and pediatricians share stories of formerly strong individuals now struggling to stay in school as well as maintain employment and housing. SB 936 saves lives statewide.
I stand withSenator Catherine Blakespear in protecting our communities, preventing further harm, and holding NOX manufacturers and retailers accountable.
