Rep. John Curtis
Good morning from Price. Looking forward to starting the roundtable discussion with @SutherlandInst on the #opioidcrisis, its impact on rural Utah, and what I’m doing in Congress to help. The event will be live streamed on my Facebook page. #utpol
Rep. John CurtisPart of today’s conversation is the alarming new study from @CDCgov that revealed the rate of women addicted to opioids has quadrupled. My bill, the POPPY Act, is a step closer to figuring out why. Today, we’re discussing how to fix it.
Sutherland Institute.@ricklarsen_ with @RepJohnCurtis today:”Community solutions is something Sutherland Institute believes in deeply. Federal legislation comes after community solutions. This(roundtable)is a group that can change things at a community level. This is what representation looks like.”
