      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.

          Opioids huh? Sounds like just another proverbial can Obama and you @SenSchumer & other GOP guys kicked down the road and now want Trump to take care of. Don't worry, he'll take care of this too.

          Respect! Your party seems to have a double standard! Democrats pushing recreational marijuana, any recovering addict will tell you Marijuana is the teasing drug that pushes users wanting better satisfaction & guess what that is, heroin, crack, even opioids! So what do you say?

          Chuck don't worry so much. California will probably legalize opioid in the near future and sell them in the marijuana stores. As log as they want stoners staggering around the state they might as well give them the good stuff and add another $billion to their tax income.

          Medicinally, marijuana is right up there with aspirin. Relieves asthma, COPD, high blood pressure, glaucoma, pain in general (depends on person), anxiety, depression, appetite, PMS, and many more ailments. Easily controlled with less side effects Than alcohol.

          Support kratom and marijuana if you want a difference. Treatment centers trade one addiction for another. My old doc had me on huge amount of opiates for nerve pain. I quit cold turkey and found kratom a year later. I can now work again and I have quality of life. #wearekratom

          One of the main reasons folks don't seek treatment is the expenses. Enacting #MedicareForAll would eliminate that qualm and enable more lives to be saved. Please cosponsor @SenSanders bill S.1804
