Singer Michael Jackson was administered a lethal dose of Propofol which is what led to his sudden passing last year. According to a new report, a group of California lobbyists are using the King of Pop’s passing as an example in their fight against the use of Propofol.

As TMZ reports, the lobbyists are calling for a law which restricts the use of the drug. Per the report, the group’s goal in calling for Michael’s law is “to prevent doctors from making careless choices, and stop them from administrating drugs that should not be administered outside of the hospital setting.”

There is no doubt that the passing of the music legend has left countless people around the world devastated. None more than his own family who hope to obtain some justice for the iconic performer who has left an indelible mark on music and influence on the lives of others.

What do you think — should Propofol be banned forever? What do you think will happen, will the drug continue to be used, and if so, should there be stricter consequences when something goes wrong with its usage?
