The July issue of the Washington State Board of Pharmacy Newsletter included information about the new 911 Good Samaritan Law, which provides immunity from drug possession charges to people who seek
medical assistance in drug overdose situations and expands access to naloxone: http://www.doh.wa.gov/hsqa/professions/Pharmacy/documents/201007.pdf
Western Washington University's The Western Front also features an article describing the law, with local treatment director Elva Giddings urging students who decide to use drugs to do so with a friend who remains sober and can get help if needed: http://westernfrontonline.net/2010071612442/news/law-seeks-to-curb-overdose-deaths/.
This story was later reprinted in UWIRE (a college journalism content-sharing system): http://uwire.com/2010/07/19/law-seeks-to-curb-overdose-deaths/
