    Addressing the opioid crisis with every possible resource and the best science we have is a top priority for @POTUS & everyone at @HHSGov. The more than $1B in grants we awarded this week will build on progress we've seen by empowering communities and families on the front lines.pic.twitter.com/mErTHSyUAD

        How does this grant support chronic pain patients unjustly targeted by this legislation? We are chronically ill people with incurable pain. Youve taken away our medical treatment and provided no solution.

        It’s illegal and unethical for doctors to abandon their patients. What happens when government abandons the ill and then criminalizes the only useful treatment? I’ll tell you. We die. We die from symptoms caused by pain. We die from suicide. We wither away from mental illness.

        You will find that you are losing many of your most vulnerable citizens, if you looked. But this administration tried to take our healthcare, why would it care about our medical treatment needs? You care only for this money and your control over it.

        Congrats on your payday, Mr. Secretary. It’s a hell of a lot more $ than I’ll ever see, esp since I’ve had to leave my job due to unmanaged pain. I’ll be forced to file for disability soon. Will you be studying that? With your grant? I’m not the only one in this boat.

        Exactly what I said: billions more will be spent on people who have to go on disability. Looking at it from a budget point of view, it makes no sense

        This is about the Psych Industry getting on the gravy train. They’ve been trying for ages-to be considered equal with medical doctors. Blowing it as usual- Making claims-without solid science to back them up.

        Why don’t you focus on the real killers in this nation: cigarettes and alcohol. Between the two, about a half million lives are lost each year. More people die from NSAIDS than prescription opioid medication. You know this is true.

        This is all about MONEY. You had to create a phony crisis to get money flowing, so the CDC falsified the data, media pumped out propaganda using fake stats. Forcing medical community to abandon chronic & intractable pain patients to suicide when it was ILLEGAL drugs all along.

        Why don't y'all cough up the missing vaccine safety reports that #HHS is supposed to have been giving Congress every 2 years? It's been over 30 since they were mandated. Tick, tock.

        You could also support the rescheduling of cannabis to C-II... That wouldn’t cost $1B.

        Nothing you do can overshadow the separation of families; do the children cry at night for their mamas? Where is your heart? Did you leave your heart at your class reunion? You're Trumps albatross!

        So you spend a $billion to debilitate people in pain and then have to spend billions more when they can’t work and have to go on disability.
