Heroin use, abuse and the crime and death associated with it are on the rise throughout Wisconsin. We talk with two state lawmakers about steps the Wisconsin legislature is taking in this session to make it easier for people to administer drugs that could save someone’s life, and allow people who witness someone in the midst of a heroin overdose to call for help without the fear of being prosecuted.
