Democratic candidate for attorney general Steve Bullock says Montana must do more to combat prescription drug abuse, which is now the state’s No. 1 drug priority according to a top narcotics officer.
“While our vigilance against meth cannot end, we must also mount a battle against this invisible epidemic,” said Bullock, a Helena lawyer and one of three Democrats vying to be attorney general.
Bullock outlined a plan earlier this month to address the problem, which includes tracking prescriptions for certain narcotic medicines and making it a crime to seek the same narcotic prescriptions from many different doctors.
