SPRINGFIELD – State Senator Patrick Joyce supported a proposal that would address the rise in synthetic opioids, along with other synthetic drugs.

“The rise in new synthetic opioids is a threat to our communities that we cannot ignore,” said Joyce (D-Essex). “This legislation has taken years’ worth of work and dedication, and I am proud to see it moving in the right direction.”

Joyce is co-sponsoring the proposal, brought by the Illinois State Police, in response to the steep increase in Xylazine related drug overdoses reported in Illinois. The Illinois Department of Public Health reported that Xylazine related overdose deaths increased from two reported deaths in 2018, to 45 in 2020 and 155 deaths in 2021.

SPRINGFIELD - State Senator Patrick Joyce was sworn in to another term in the Illinois Senate Wednesday, as the 104^th General Assembly officially began.

“Illinois has some serious issues residents are facing and feeling every day, and I’m ready to get to work with my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to ensure we deliver real solutions that improve the lives of everyone in the state,” said Joyce (D-Essex). “I will continue to be a common-sense voice down in Springfield and will always put people above party and politics.” 

Joyce, a Democrat from Essex, was appointed to the Senate in 2019 and was elected to serve his third full term in November. He represents the 40^th District, which includes portions of southern Cook County, a majority of Kankakee County, an eastern portion of Will County and southeastern Grundy County.

During his time in office, Joyce has focused on improving the agriculture industry, increasing access to health care and lowering property taxes.
