With the ongoing opioid crisis across Pennsylvania, Senator David Argall and Representative Mike Tobash held a town hall meeting about the epidemic Wednesday in Pine Grove.
More than 4,600 Pennsylvanians died from this addiction in 2016.
The question and answer session was held at the request of several local residents who have either been affected by the crisis or who are worried about the deadly impacts that opioids will have on the personal and economic health of western Schuylkill County.
Rural Pennsylvania has especially been hit hard by the crisis.
