I want to make sure that we understand that. It is not under Fish and Wildlife jurisdiction.

Every day we lose over 200 people as a result of fentanyl poisoning.

Mr. Chairman, I can't thank all of you enough for being here, and thank you, Mr. Chairman, for holding this hearing because this is a national emergency.
