Lamar Alexander actually said...

Some are saying we need an opioid czar. I hope you will join me in advising the President that this is a bad idea.

The Democratic Leader called it a 'good compromise,' and said it has the support of, 'all 48 Democrats' in the Senate.

The opioid crisis that is ravaging this country is a priority for the President and for every Member of this Committee.

Yesterday, the President said he supported the Alexander-Murray agreement becoming law by the end of the year.
