King County Council declares fentanyl a public health crisis amid spike in deadly overdoses
Fentanyl overdose deaths are rising so quickly in King County that the county council declared fentanyl to be a public health crisis on Tuesday.
King County is on track to set a new record, with more than 260 people dying from fentanyl overdoses so far this year — a more than 46% increase compared to this time last year.
Last year, the number of people who died from fentanyl overdoses in the county more than doubled, according to the King County Medical Examiner Office’s Fatal Overdose Dashboard.
The motion also directs Public Health — Seattle & King County to find strategies to increase its efforts to reduce fentanyl-related deaths.

J.D. Vance’s claim that Biden is targeting ‘MAGA voters’ with fentanyl
“If you wanted to kill a bunch of MAGA voters in the middle of the heartland, how better than to target them and their kids with this deadly fentanyl? … It does look intentional. It’s like Joe Biden wants to punish the people who didn’t vote for him and opening up the floodgates to the border is one way to do it.”
??? ... Not according to Vance.
