Newt Gingrich (newtgingrich): Opioid counseling is not enough—we need science-based treatments nationwide | Opinion
Much of the news cycle gets devoted to U.S. negotiations with North Korea, the trade fight with China, and securing the U.S. border, but there is a far more immediate threat to our country that puts American lives at risk everyday—addiction.
Consider the amount of attention and activity the U.S. government and the nation at large paid to these two military conflicts compared to the efforts to combat the opioid epidemic, which is driving the overdose death toll in America.
On the latest episode of my podcast, Newt’s World, Kennedy said,"our country is suffering from a lack of insight as to how impactful these illnesses are and how little attention we give to actually addressing a better strategy for addressing these illnesses." Frankly, the federal government should look at cities which are making serious strides in this fight—and are creating models which could be used nationwide.
