Suffolk County Executive Ed Romaine is poised to sign a groundbreaking law aimed at protecting residents from the alarming rise of fentanyl-laced gas station air fresheners, commonly referred to as "gas station heroin." These seemingly innocuous products have been found to contain the deadly synthetic opioid fentanyl, often disguised as legitimate air fresheners or other items. The new legislation, which has been months in the making, would hold retailers accountable for selling these hazardous products and impose stricter regulations on the sale of air fresheners and other items that could potentially be used to distribute fentanyl. The move is seen as a critical step in addressing the ongoing opioid crisis that has plagued Suffolk County and communities nationwide.
