OTTAWA – State Representative Lance Yednock is sponsoring legislation to push agencies in doing more to end the opioid crisis. House Resolution 58 encourages the Illinois Department of Public Health to adopt new guidelines around the distribution of painkillers, preventing over-prescribing. Yednock plans to support additional legislation combating opioid abuse, as he says fighting the epidemic is one of his highest priorities as state representative. The bill was assigned to the Prescription Drug Affordability and Accessibility Committee.
