Mr. Speaker, I yield myself the balance of my time. Mr. Speaker, this epidemic knows no boundaries. Opioid abuse continues to devastate families and communities all over this country. As we continue to work toward commonsense solutions to the opioid epidemic, this bipartisan legislation will help break down barriers to nonopioid treatments and give healthcare providers better tools to prevent addiction and to assist in recovery. I want to thank Chairman Brady for all of his hard work, as well as my friend Ms. Judy Chu of California, who helped develop and introduce this bill. I urge my colleagues to support this bill, and I yield back the balance of my time. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the motion offered by the gentlewoman from Indiana (Mrs. Walorski) that the House suspend the rules and pass the bill, H.R. 6110. The question was taken; and (two-thirds being in the affirmative) the rules were suspended and the bill was passed. A motion to reconsider was laid on the table. ____________________
