Senate Advances Two Bills Wednesday Morning

The Senate read two bills a first time during a very brief floor session Wednesday morning.

Specifically, the bill would define and clarify the phrases “engaged in the illegal use of a controlled substance” and “Seek medical assistance” as used in the elements of the crime of drug delivery resulting in death with failure to render aid.
