Texas Residents: Thank Needle Exchange Legislation Sponsors!

Thank you for taking action and making a positive difference in syringe access policy in Texas! Legislators frequently mentioned the large number of faxes, letters and phone calls they received in support of SB 308, and we have every reason to believe that your strong support helped to give cautious legislators the confidence they needed to vote for a more reasonable and effective way to deal with injection drug abuse and addiction.

Please take a moment to thank SB 308's Senate and House sponsors for their hard work and dedication to preventing HIV and hepatitis C in Texas. Senator Deuell and Representative McClendon truly championed the cause and worked above and beyond the call of duty to pass needle exchange into law.
