Democrats Block GOP Attempt to Get Tougher on Fentanyl Trade As Fentanyl Deaths Explode

There were about 71,000 overdose deaths from fentanyl in the U.S. last year.

Ever since democrats “decriminalized” drugs… we’ve seen year-over-year OD fatalities.

There’s no end in sight because Democrats won’t admit their policies are to blame.

Former DEA official warns parents after fentanyl found disguised in candy packaging: ‘It’s a mass poisoning’.

I’ve been tracking fentanyl poisoning for the last 4 weeks.

Based on NIH data, 154 Americans die from fentanyl daily.

That’s the equivalent of 38 mass shootings.

In the last 28 days, 4,312 Americans died from fentanyl poisoning.

That’s the equivalent of 1,078 mass shootings.

🚨PARENT WARNING: Please instruct your children to be careful!

ALL street drugs are now potentially laced with deadly fentanyl (from China via Mexican cartels across the open U.S. border). Now the poison is even being disguised and transported as popular brands of CANDY. pic.twitter.com/Cht4f8WoVR

Heroine Overdose Deaths Halved as Fentanyl Deaths Tripled Over 5 Years

Spencer Brown: A bill that would permanently put fentanyl-related substances in schedule I of the Controlled Substances Act was blocked on Wednesday by 220 House Democrats who voted against considering the legislation that would have given the government more power to crack down on the criminal enterprises profiting off of lethal fentanyl-related drugs (Townhall). House Rules Republicans: Fentanyl is pouring across Biden’s open border & claiming American lives at rates never before seen. We need to secure the border & fully prosecute traffickers, but @HouseDemocrats blocked @HouseGOP requests to consider a bill to keep fentanyl a controlled substance (Twitter).

The Biden Border Crisis is posing a serious threat to our children. As Halloween approaches, we must warn parents that cartels are trafficking and selling rainbow fentanyl to appeal to kids. These pills are deadly, and parents should carefully check over Halloween candy this year pic.twitter.com/9MlHzsl8mm

There were about 71,000 overdose deaths from fentanyl in the U.S. last year.

However, fewer than a third (31%) of voters accurately answered that fentanyl killed more than 50,0000 Americans in 2021. https://t.co/p6uYtkg1zE pic.twitter.com/QKM2keNOEm
