                    in the house of representatives

                         Friday, June 22, 2018

  Ms. BONAMICI. Mr. Speaker, I was unable to be on the House floor on 
June 19, 2018 because my flight from Oregon was delayed because of 
weather. If I had been present, I would have voted in favor of H.R. 
5676, the Stop Excessive Narcotics in our Retirement Communities 
Protection Act, and H.R. 5687, the Securing Opioids and Unused 
Narcotics with Deliberate Disposal and Packaging Act of 2018. These 
bills take important steps to stem the tide of opioid abuse in this 
country, and I will continue to work with my colleagues on both sides 
of the aisle to combat this crisis.
