Bill overview
The Seek Help Act aims to reduce drug-related deaths by providing legal protections for individuals who seek medical assistance when witnessing or experiencing an overdose. It shields people from prosecution for drug possession if they administer opioid overdose reversal drugs in good faith and offers similar protections to those who seek help for themselves or others. The bill also includes provisions for public awareness campaigns and a government study to assess the effectiveness of these protections and guide future implementation.
