Governor Gavin Newsom announced Friday a new plan involving the California National Guard and other agencies to combat the fentanyl crisis in San Francisco.
“It’s definitely a move in the right direction,” said Mayor London Breed. “I have reached out to our governor, I reached to Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and others and in fact our governor has responded with what I think is going to be some tremendous support.”
The collaboration between all four agencies will focus on “dismantling fentanyl trafficking and disrupting the supply of the deadly drug in the city by holding the operators of large-scale drug trafficking operations accountable.”Sign up for NBC Bay Area’s Housing Deconstructed newsletter.
