do the same med take back program in many other countries like Mexico nor discuss the public health impacts or national drug abuse epidemic. This is going to be a big week in this national discussion.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<i>Wall Street Journal </i>editorial follows other recent articles highlighting the case currently before the Court. An article in the

highlights how these programs are expanding. “Four local governments, including San Francisco’s, have adopted similar laws, and at least a dozen more are considering doing the same,” they write. And an article in the
<i>Washington Examiner</i>, “</a><a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.washingtonexaminer.com_supreme-2Dcourt-2Dcould-2Dweigh-2Dlocal-2Dmandates-2Don-2Ddrug-2Dmakers_article_2562121&d=BQMFaQ&c=b0jCsCrjppgZvAspjmlvCA&r=ngii1lEiwH0eIrCRntr5_FOoCoLvs01BoPrlw6i6xYk&m=GaQGE7XOEXRYfZtfGZDevDwVWX0oDk4rtm1hG9g-PhU&s=Phc0da0rBHmhLOfosP1eLvW16kGsWiq9j5rB5z-q0LA&e=" title="http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/supreme-court-could-weigh-local-mandates-on-drug-makers/article/2562121">Supreme

have pointed out how business groups have also been weighting in. “Business groups, including the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, have filed briefs supporting the drugmakers' case. They say the new disposal programs create a new precedent whereby localities could
require manufacturers of other products like tires, batteries or mattresses to do the same,” the article notes.
