Governor Murphy Signs Bipartisan Resolution Designating July 14 as ‘Fentanyl Poisoning Awareness Day’
“ As fentanyl continues to be the leading substance in New Jersey’s overdose crisis and has contributed to the tragic deaths of thousands of New Jersey residents, Governor Phil Murphy today signed a bipartisan resolution to designate an annual ‘Fentanyl Poisoning Awareness Day’ in our state.
As part of the Administration’s ongoing efforts to prevent overdoses and combat the effects of the opioid crisis on our communities, this resolution aims to help raise awareness about the dangers of fentanyl and honor the lives lost to this substance.”
