A growing number of Oregon cities vote to ban psychedelic mushroom compound psilocybin.

Four cities, spanning Portland suburbs and rural and coastal towns, added new voter-approved prohibitions for the federally illegal compound.

Experts say the rejection of drug liberalization measures in Oregon and states across the country this election has some experts questioning whether voters are rethinking their appetite for such policies.

A psilocybin center in Oregon has served 400 people in its first year .

Many come seeking help for depression, anxiety, trauma and addiction after years of trying talk therapy and medication.

A lack of public awareness about the state's program has led many to confuse it with Measure 110.

Measure 110 was passed in 2020 that decriminalized possession of small amounts of drugs.
