In the News…
Utah Representative John Curtis along with a bipartisan group of Senators and Representatives have introduced the Methamphetamine Response Act that would declare methamphetamine an emerging drug threat and require the Office of National Drug Control Policy to develop a plan to prevent meth from becoming a public health crisis.
In a news release, Representative Curtis said, “Over the last decade, methamphetamine addiction and fatalities have skyrocketed across the United States—especially in rural areas like the ones I am proud to represent. The COVID-19 pandemic has only exacerbated the problem by spreading resources thinly and making it more difficult to connect with individuals in need of support.
“To combat this threat, I am proud to co-lead the bipartisan Methamphetamine Response Act, which channels the necessary resources at the highest levels of government to develop and implement a nationwide plan to prevent this dangerous drug from becoming even more prevalent in our communities.”
