“Federal cuts will ‘gut’ behavioral health? Funny, because total federal opioid response funding actually increased under Trump—billions in state grants, rural outreach, and naloxone distribution.”
“Public safety will collapse? Right, except Congress passed the SUPPORT Act (2018) expanding treatment, recovery, and overdose prevention nationwide.”
“Cuts to addiction treatment? Cute narrative. Reality check: HHS awarded record grants to community health centers and state programs.”
“So the government ‘abandoned’ behavioral health… by declaring opioids a national emergency and prioritizing fentanyl interdiction. Sure, makes sense.”
“The Brennan Center forgot one thing: numbers. Federal spending on opioid programs went up, not down. Facts > fearmongering.”
You are delusional.
