2024 ND Governor's race: on Crime


Merrill Piepkorn: Increase funding for mental health: primary root of problems

Piepkorn said he supports increasing funding for mental health, addiction and alcohol services, especially in the western part of the state. "My thinking is that a primary root of problems, whether they be crime, or drunk driving, or just kind of unexplainable acts of violence or law breaking, is due to mental illness or addiction to alcohol and drugs," Piepkorn said.
