    For months my colleagues & I have been insistent that any budget agreement include key funding to reverse the spike in opioid deaths. This is a national emergency that’s taken the lives of far too many Americans.

        Jeff Sessions isn't helping. He's trampling on state's rights and saying weed deserves the same schedule as heroin. Just saying.

        The problem starts with the idea that anybody deserves punishment for suffering an already devestating medical condition (addiction).

        It's an American puritan thing. We don't like to deal with things that make us uncomfortable. Addiction, disabilities, sex, etc. If it makes us cringe, it goes under the rug.

        Why not legalize marijuana as a solution to opioid crisis? It is less addictive, has less severe side effects, and Is cheaper than opioids. Why are we acting like opioids are the only option?

        Quit spending our taxpayer money on foreign aid and illegals and spend it on the poor American people. The people are tired of you crooks wasting our hard earned money!
