    HONORING KATE FETTER'S COMMITMENT TO COMBATING THE OPIOID CRISIS

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. ANGIE CRAIG

                              of minnesota

                    in the house of representatives

                      Tuesday, September 24, 2024

  Ms. CRAIG. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor my constituent, Kate 
Fetter, who worked in partnership with her peers to put together a 
Fight Back Against Fentanyl PSA.
  Kate is from Cottage Grove, Minnesota. She has proven her commitment 
to combating the opioid crisis through her advocacy and work with the 
Devin Norring Foundation. The Devin Norring Foundation was established 
to honor Devin's legacy and raise awareness about the dangers of 
illicit drugs and fentanyl.
  On April 4, 2020, Devin passed away from fentanyl poisoning. He was 
seeking relief from blackout migraines and dental pain. He bought what 
he thought was Percocet marketed by a drug dealer on Snapchat. That 
pill turned out to be 100 percent fentanyl.
  Devin was 19 years old.
  The Devin Norring Foundation, in partnership with Kate, produced an 
impactful and heartfelt PSA to fight back against fentanyl. In turning 
grief into activism, Kate has shown strength and courage beyond her 
years. I am proud to have her as a constituent and an ally in this 
fight against the fentanyl crisis.
  I thank Kate for demonstrating a commitment to combating the opioid 
crisis.
