Context

Portugal decriminalized all drugs in 2001 — drug deaths halved, HIV infections fell by 95%. The "war on drugs" cost trillions and led to mass incarceration, disproportionately in minority communities. Oregon and Germany have partially followed Portugal's model.

Real-world source

Assembleia da República (Portugal) · 11/29/2000
