    I introduced legislation with @SenJohnMcCain to go after a root cause of the opioid epidemic: over-prescription. http://bit.ly/2vCb5fN

        States which have decided to legalize cannabis have lower rates of opioid use, abuse and overdoses.

        I am in agreement with your concern. Some surgical procedures warrant use of opioids in follow up care. Hip, knee,and spine surg. 4 example.

        Sorry Senators but that's not root cause. It's joblessness, homelessness, mental health and addiction support. This is antiquated thinking
