  Mr. ROGERS of Kentucky. Madam Speaker, pursuant to the House 
Republican standards on congressionally-directed funding, I am 
submitting the following information regarding funding included in H.R. 
3170--Financial Services and General Government Appropriations Act, 
2010
  Requesting Member: Congressman Harold Rogers
  Bill Number: H.R. 3170
  Account: ONDCP
  Legal Name of Recipient: National Alliance for Model State Drug Laws
  Address of Recipient: 1414 Prince Street, Alexandria, VA 22314
  Description of Request: As also requested by the President, provides 
$1,250,000 in directed funding to assist states with their efforts to 
address diversion of, abuse of, misuse of, and addiction to 
prescription drugs. The National Alliance for Model State Drug Laws 
(NAMSDL) is a non-profit organization that serves as a resource for 
governors, state legislators, drug and alcohol professionals, community 
leaders, and others striving for comprehensive and effective state drug 
and alcohol laws, policies and programs. NAMSDL's national network of 
drug and alcohol experts researches and analyzes model drug and alcohol 
laws, and facilitates working relationships among state and community 
leaders and drug and alcohol professionals. The proliferation of 
addictive pain-relief prescription drugs in Kentucky and across the 
country necessitates continued funding of NAMSDL programs.
