Dangerous drugs like fentanyl are killing thousands of Americans each year, and we have to reject the partisan echo chamber and work together to make meaningful, lasting changes.

The southwest border is in crisis, Arizona continues to bear the brunt of the Federal Government's failures on the border, and the situation is only getting worse.

Our system is not working. Arizonans and migrants are suffering; our communities are in crisis.

I appreciate that the supplemental request includes $1.55 billion to provide treatment, harm reduction, and recovery support services for people struggling with addiction.

I thank my friend and colleague from Arizona and the ranking member. Mr. Chairman, we remember the EIDL loans from during the pandemic. We have some documents that say there may be as much as $62 billion in impairment. Understand that…
