WASHINGTON — In a move to address the nation’s deadly opioid crisis, the Justice Department says it will target the prescription drug pipeline with a new focus on companies that manufacture and distribute the drugs.
Justice Department to Target Opioid Manufacturers, Distributors
Oct 16, 2017 – Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) is running for Senate in a state that has been hit hard by the opioid crisis. Now, she is fielding attacks for supporting a bill that weakened law enforcement’s ability to curb the flow of pain pills to the black market.
Blackburn has taken $732,000 from the drug companies.
What?, and the liberals are good with that? Are you sure that trying to come up with an excuse as to why Hillary lost the election doesn’t trump this decision? Doesn’t add up. I know that there are 40k+ deaths a year in Kentucky and countless lives all over this country taken by unregulated drug dealing pharmaceutical companies and their pushers who can get all of the refills they want, but is it really that serious? True, just about every family has or knows someone whose life is being destroy by opioids, but isn’t the transit a little more important than that? Who knows, maybe it’s just a “lengthy fad” like parachute pants, and it will eventually go away on its on. Are their doctors quick to diagnose and hand out opioid cocktails to anyone who’s having a bad day or those who….., wait for it!, can’t cope with Trump getting elected? Are they really doing that? Wonder why this outbreak of disorders now and not yesteryear? Good luck A.G. Sessions! Praying for your success.
