Over 70,000 families lost loved ones to fentanyl in 2021. This is about more than numbers—our broken homes deserve a commitment to ending this crisis, and it starts by securing the border.

And they want to ban guns! How about ban the direct access where fentanyl enters our country and penalize the country from which those drugs come.

It starts by creating drug and mental health resource facilities. Until the demand is stopped, people will find a way to get drugs. Remember bath tub meth, made with cleaning products? Why aren’t you working on addressing the demand instead of tweeting. We’re all watching you.

It starts by figuring out why people are so desperate to consume potentially lethal drugs. Supply and demand.

90% of fentanyl is seized at the border, Tim. How is it that you don't know this? Why are you focusing on the wrong things, constantly? Illegal immigrants aren't the ones smuggling fentanyl into America. Americans are. 👇 cato.org/blog/fentanyl-smugg…

And twice that many families lost members to guns, do something about that before you continue to worsen matters. You weaken regulations so employers aren't responsible for employee injuries, then restrict access to healthcare and prescriptions

It doesn't start by securing the border. It starts with better mental health care, housing the homeless, treating addiction like the health crisis it is rather than a criminal crisis. Drug dealers will always find a way in, we need to make sure there are no consumers for them

Why not address the demand side, Tim? No drug use, no drug deaths.
