Join the Fight

Dear Lawmaker:

 

The opioid epidemic now kills more than 130 people a day, yet federal policies are unintentionally adding to the death toll.  The federal government continues to subsidize fraud and abuse in the drug treatment industry, and prevents local and state governments from enacting reasonable guidelines for the protection of sober home residents.  The result is an endless cycle of relapse over recovery, as corrupted drug rehab providers are enriched, while individuals with substance use disorder are exploited until they overdose or die.  This is the "Florida Shuffle," and I am urging you to fix it immediately.

Sincerely,
