President Trump ended the opioid prescription epidemic through safe prescribing methods.  For the first time in year, life expectancy went up as drug deaths declined. Tragically, America is under attack by fentanyl and other drugs resulting in a record 300 deaths a day. This is a national crisis.

Fentanyl should be declared a weapon of mass destruction to target the supply of illicit drugs.

Primary drug prevention needs to be revived in schools and communities to teach kids healthy life skills in dealing with adversities and avoiding drugs.

Treatment with compassion should be available to all those who suffer from addiction.

America is a wealth super power, yet our people suffer disproportionately from mental health ailments such as depression and anxiety. 

The answer to mental health issues involves prevention and treatment. At a young age children should take pride in their unique identify, their family, community, and country.  Pride and purpose leads to happiness.
