Portland resident warns addicts are using food stamps to buy fentanyl: 'Zombies on our streets'
Fox News
Portland resident Angela Todd claims addicts are funding their drug addiction through food stamps two years after the state decriminalized the possession of drugs.
"People are not using their food debit cards to help for survival skills or diapers or to make ends meet," Todd said during "Fox & Friends First" Tuesday. "They're cashing them in for drugs. It's really it's very sad... The taxpayer dollars are being wasted, and you understand that we're in a situation where we have record overdoses and the state is turning a blind eye to this. This is really awful to allow this to go on." Bailee Hill is an associate editor with Fox News Digital. Story ideas can be sent to bailee.hill@fox.com
Todd noted millions have seen the footage showing the crisis, which she blamed on either "incompetence or corruption," just two years after voters in Oregon decriminalized the possession of all drugs.
