      Bill contains a $2 billion funding increase for the @NIH, paving the way for importance research -- and, we hope, new medical breakthroughs. And crucially, it will supply more resources for treatment, prevention, and recovery programs pertaining to the #opioidepidemic.

      State #Opioid Response Grants put states in the driver’s seat, so local responses can be tailored to local challenges. This legislation funds them to the tune of $1.5 billion.

      In addition, there are hundreds of millions of dollars for Community Health Centers. Hundreds of millions for prevention and public awareness. And more for research into the nature of this addiction and alternatives for managing pain.

      There’s over $100 million in targeted help for rural communities -- like those in #Kentucky -- which continue to bear the brunt of this national crisis. #opioidepidemic

          Proud to secure $5 million for a brand-new Centers for Disease Control initiative to help prevent the spread of infectious diseases like HIV and Hepatitis B and C, which are a consequence of the #opioidepidemic.

          And this legislation also contains provisions from my #CAREERAct, which will dedicate new federal funds to career and training services so that recovering substance abuse patients can transition back into the workforce and rebuild their lives. #Kentucky #opioidcrisis
