CONCORD — Attorney General John M. Formella and 24 of his fellow Attorneys General have sent a letter urging the U.S. Senate to pass the HALT Fentanyl Act, which would end a dangerous loophole currently being exploited by drug traffickers.

“Fentanyl and its analogues have become a significant and growing threat to public health. The HALT Fentanyl Act provides law enforcement the tools necessary to fight these deadly substances, and we are urging Congress to take immediate action to protect our communities,” Formella said in a press release.
