The fentanyl crisis in the US is a direct result of addiction, overprescription & insufficient primary prevention + homelessness & our inability to care for one another (e.g. using fentanyl to self-medicate). Raising the price of US consumer goods will push more people towards addiction

The president can veto or support legislation. He can make recommendations to Congress. But he doesn't have the unilateral right to change laws.
Trump has very little respect for the rule of law & our Constitution. He is moving us toward authoritarianism.
We must stop him.
