Oregon To Settle With Sackler Family And Purdue Pharma
(Salem, OR) -- A group of states, including Oregon, agree to a settlement with Purdue Pharma and the company's owners, the Sackler Family, over their role in the opioid crisis. It's a nearly seven-and-a-half-billion-dollar settlement. Oregon would get up to 66 million dollars over nine years. 45 percent of the money would go to the state for opioid programs and 55 percent to counties for local opioid prevention and treatment. The settlement still needs to be approved by a judge.
