President Donald Trump was the first US President in modern history to oversee a decline in heroin deaths.
But immediately after his inauguration, Joe Biden rescinded President Trump’s order expanding access to opioid abuse treatment.
According to Freedom Wire:

According to anonymous sources reported by the Washington Post, Biden’s impending move will reinstate the rule requiring practitioners to obtain the “X-waiver” before prescribing Buprenorphine.
The X-waiver is described by Addiction Center as “a federal license that permits clinicians to prescribe buprenorphine for Opioid addiction treatment.”
Advocates for rescinding the rule say the X-waiver ensures medical experts receive the proper training on prescribing the medication as it can be dangerous if it is over-prescribed. The opposing side says removing the X-waiver will help people get the treatment they need faster.
A draft of Biden’s announcement released by the Post allegedly states, “Unfortunately, the Practice Guidelines for the Administration of Buprenorphine for Treating Opioid Use Disorder announced by the Trump administration in its last days had significant legal and clinical concerns.”
Therefore, “The Biden Administration will not issue the Guidelines previously announced.”
This news comes just over two weeks after Trump’s Administration announced the new guidelines “cutting the red tape” to access to the medication.
Biden has promised throughout his campaign that he would work to combat the opioid epidemic; however, his initial actions do not show much promise as he seems to be restricting access to much-needed medications.
So far, nothing that I have seen biden do has been for the benefit of the American people. His guiding principle seems to be anything that Trump was for, he’s against and anything that Trump was against, he’s for.
That’s no way to govern a country.
HOPEFLLY people will understand the statement “YOU CAN’T FIX STUPID” and “COMMON SENSE is no longer “COMMON” What was the other one “GREED IS GOOD” (Sorry for all the movie quotes) But if you read them a few times you will understand they seem to ring TRUE.
What you teach your children does and will come back to haunt you! Look into what your school teaches. Read the textbooks!
There are so many things people could actually do before they “VOTE” Do just a little research and you DON’T have to be a Democrat or a Republican. Vote for the “person” not the “PARTY” it is now called pick “the lesser of two EVIL’s . If they lied to you while campaigning. Vote them out next term, don’t expect them to change other than lie to you while campaigning again.
“The People” control the government if they would just wake up and “stop following” before it’s too late!! I for one think we are almost passed that point. If you truly LOVE your children, SHOW THEM YOU ACTUALLY CARE! Show the “LIFELONG POLITICANS” they actually have to do the job you trusted them to do when you VOTED them in. REMEMBER it works both ways. Use your “VOTE” wisely.
