Fentanyl is a lethally potent, inexpensive drug that accounts for the largest rate of drug overdose deaths in the United States. Virginia is ranked by the CDC as one of nine states with a significant increase in drug overdoses for all ages. Drug overdose deaths among adolescents 10-19 years old increased 109% from the end of 2019 to the end of 2021 with deaths involving counterfeit pills present in 25% of adolescent deaths. The Virginia PTA supports funding and implementation of evidence-based comprehensive substance use education, prevention and early intervention programs that are differentiated for an accessible to all learners. The Virginia PTA supports HB134.

Good morning, I'm providing a written comment to support HB 134 because I personally know the effects what fentanyl can do to an individual and their families and communities. Professionally, I'm a public safety officer (correctional officer) who responded to suspected fentanyl overdose situations behind the prison walls. It is an experience I hope no one in the school system ever have to experience. Although I think a fentanyl agenda should happen in the beginning of the school year, it is being recognized that students must be educated about its harmful effects. Please support HB 134 and its effort to prevent a potential tragedy to another student and their family.

Vote in favor of: HB1039, HB732, HB686, HB603, HB498, HB497, HB482, HB386, HB253, HB224, HB215, HB134, and HB41. I would recommend including additional language in HB41 that addresses voter registrations in public schools. Being an active voter is part of our civic duty and participation in our democratic process should be taught and encouraged. Voter registration drives should be occurring in all public high schools in the Commonwealth.
