    In 2016, for every 1,000 babies born in Florida, 18 are born dependent on opioids. This is an increase over the previous year, where for every 1,000 newborns, 11 are born suffering from Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome.

        Glad we were able to pass the spending package in Congress last week, which includes $3.3 billion in increased funding to fight the opioid epidemic and the mental health crises our country faces.

        The spending package also includes a $60 million increase in funding for state grants to help babies born with Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome get the care they need.

        Today, I visited the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at St. Mary’s Medical Center in West Palm Beach to get a firsthand look at the opioid epidemic here in Florida, and talked with medical professionals about what we can do to combat this problem.pic.twitter.com/iq8YLbQ58U

        In 2014 for every 1,000 babies born in Florida, 13 of them were legally and intentionally murdered by "doctors" who swore to "do no harm".

        Now that opioids are at an epidemic proportion under your liberal watch I’ll be sure to vote @FLGovScott for Senate.https://medium.com/@kfrydl/obama-the-opioid-crisis-7910ce57d0b6 …

        Ban opioids and that will stop this. Or on the other side of the coin, keep them legal and...???

        There are 500k/ year babies that never are allowed to be born, Planned Parenthood supports the killing of these innocent babies and I don't hear Nelson speaking about the unborn, they'll never be voters or if they are they'll be democrats

        How about removing your block on the NASA administrator and allowing a vote?
