Senate approves bill to define opioid abuse as child neglect

Senate approves bill to define opioid abuse as child neglect | Health - WMUR Home:
Supporters said the approval was a win for children, calling them the most vulnerable victims of the opioid epidemic. The bill will now move to the House, where senators believe it will undergo some more changes.Senators said the overall goal of the legislation is to keep families together and get people the help they need.

My Comment: Better turn the Statehouse into an orphanage because DCYF will need all that space to put all the stolen children! Instead of using the excuse "in imminent danger", the new excuse will be "in extreme circumstances". They both mean the same thing. Just another way to pull the wool over everyone's eyes!
