Oregon officials and Becerra said prevention is key to driving down the overdoses and drug usage.

U.S. Rep. Suzanne Bonamici plans to introduce a congressional bill in September that would provide funding for school districts nationwide to have curriculum modeled after what’s in place at the Beaverton School District, which was the first in Oregon to launch a fentanyl awareness curriculum.
