Date: June 22, 2023
Location: Washington, DC
Issues: Drugs

"I am pleased that the Senate has passed this common sense, bipartisan legislation to improve our ability to detect a truly horrifying drug that is killing Texans. Since tranq is not an opioid, it poses a unique threat, rendering medications commonly used to reverse opioid overdoses completely ineffective. I am grateful to Senator Welch for working with me to ensure our law enforcement and those on the frontlines of the drug crisis have access to reliable data and research that will help us combat this deadly substance."
