Area Congressman Larry Bucshon is standing up against potentially deadly sales of drugs over social media sites.
Bucshon is a member of the House Energy and Commerce Committee.
In a committee session, he spelled out a case where an Evansville woman lost her life through a social media drug purchase.
An 18 year-old Evansville man is charged with her death. Bucshon is pushing to make the platform accountable — and not just the person selling the illegal substances.
Bucshon claims over 70% of overdose deaths in Indiana are caused by synthetic drugs.
