Floor Speech
Issues: Drugs
BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT
Mr. GUTHRIE. Mr. Speaker, I rise in support of the SUPPORT for Patients and Communities Act.
One of the main things I hear back home is how our Nation's ongoing opioid crisis has affected either themselves, their loved ones, or their community.
Mothers, fathers, children, bankers, dentists, bus drivers, or high school athletes, anyone can fall victim to opioid use disorder. That is why I am proud to work with my colleagues in support of the act so that we can help these people who are suffering from this terrible epidemic.
Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues to support this critical legislation so that we can deliver relief to those communities.
