When you talk to law enforcement officers anywhere in America today, they will tell you that about 80 percent of the crimes committed in America are the direct result of some type of drug. Methamphetamine is certainly one of those. In Kentucky, we have the Pennyrile Drug Task Force. And when I think about the passage of this legislation, I think of a gentleman named Cheyenne Albro who started that task force and who was a true leader in combatting methamphetamine and who, unfortunately, died a couple of weeks ago, but I know he would be very proud of this act. I would urge that this legislation be adopted.
