"One year ago today, @POTUS signed into law our landmark legislation to support the families, first responders, and healthcare professionals who have to face our nation's opioid epidemic every day. There is much more to do but we're already seeing encouraging results."

"This summer brought the first nationwide decrease in overdose fatalities in almost 30 years. In #Kentucky, the rate of deaths from this epidemic dropped nearly 15 percent. I was proud to secure more than $200 million in aid for the Bluegrass State on this issue."

"We must continue this progress. The Senate is moving forward $25 million more in support for my #CAREERAct to help those overcoming addiction find transitional housing and employment. I hope each of my colleagues will join me in continuing to support the #OpioidCrisisResponse."
