Worked so well for Portland, Oregon.

That's what happens when you don't follow through and fail to fund the second half of it.

Decriminalization will work with actual funded treatment centers.

This also doesn't prevent police from stopping drug users. Police just stopped stopping public drug users because they can no longer get direct funding from arresting them.

I have no idea what the solution to address that is besides also fixing policing.
