The Washington state attorney general announced a $149.5 million settlement Wednesday, Jan. 24, 2024, with drugmaker Johnson & Johnson, more than four years after the state sued the company over its role in the opioid addiction crisis. Under the deal, the state and local governments would have to spend $123.3 million to address the opioid crisis, including on substance abuse treatment, expanding access to overdose-reversal drugs and support services for pregnant women on substances.
