But the Daily Mail has since removed it so that the link leads nowhere. Here's a Gazette article that's just as good or better:

Pseudoephedrine bill comes back to lawmakers

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- State lawmakers will once again debate a bill designed to curb methamphetamine production in West Virginia.

The legislation -- called the Larry Border Act after the late delegate from Wood County -- would require a prescription for cold and allergy medicines containing pseudoephedrine. The drug is a key meth-making ingredient.

Sen. Dan Foster, D-Kanawha, introduced the bill Thursday.

"What we're trying to do is eliminate the meth labs," Foster said during a press conference. "There's the toxic issue. (Meth labs) affect our children. They're like bombs."
