The Texas Senate passed a bill on Wednesday that would allow fentanyl dealers to be charged with murder. The bill is sponsored by state Senator Joan Huffman, a Republican who represents the Houston area. In 2021, Huffman was also behind a bill that implemented harsher penalties for manufacturing or delivering more than one gram of fentanyl. Both bills are part of Texas' push to stop the huge amounts of fentanyl that come across the southern border from Mexico.
