Is this a boondoggle or is it actually useful investment? (www.epa.gov)

How can the Oregon government make drugs illegal again with no public comment periods or voter input at all?
Their main excuse? Police were never properly trained on how to handle possession and use cases so they now want to offer immunity for a misdemeanor if you take treatment instead. If not, you get a misdemeanor and the draconian shit starts all over again. Source
