In December 2017 Clark County, Nevada filed a lawsuit against opioid distributors and manufacturers, as Clark County residents deal with the ongoing opioid epidemic. The widespread use of opioid drugs has resulted in a national epidemic of opioid deaths and addictions. Local governments including Clark County have been strained to the breaking point by this public health crisis.
