The Governor of California, Gavin Newsom, has ordered state police and the California National Guard to partner with local law enforcement agencies to tackle San Francisco’s drug problem and disrupt fentanyl trafficking.
The move comes after city officials requested state and federal assistance to tackle the issues of open-air drug dealing.
The Governor announced the plan on Friday just days after taking a tour of the Tenderloin district with California Attorney General Rob Bonta and Mayor London Breed’s Chief of Staff in which the trio assessed the situation for themselves and saw how bad the fentanyl crisis in the city has become.
The California Highway Patrol, the California National Guard, the San Francisco Police Department, and the San Francisco District Attorney’s Office will now collaborate to help the city address the drug problem.
