[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Hi thanks Yankee- I'll type up more on this tomorrow but Naloxone is a drug (often used as a naval spray) that is used to treat those suffering from opioid overdoses. It's used in an emergency situation & can make a life saving difference.

The list also isn't exhaustive- so I'm very open to amendments or improvements to this bill.

I look forward to it.
