SENATE OKS ANTI-METH BILL
Winner-Sponsored Bill Makes It Easier To Prosecute Suspected Drug Makers.
ALBANY - The state's efforts to control the spread methamphetamine got a
boost Tuesday when the Senate passed a pair of bills to toughen penalties
for its manufacture.
"New York has ... a welcome sign for the producers of methamphetamine,"
since its penalties are less strict than Pennsylvania, said Sen. George H.
Winner Jr., R-Elmira. "We need this legislation to control this scourge."
