                            OPIOID ADDICTION

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, I join the Republican leader on the need to 
address the scourge of opioid addiction. It is a scourge. That is why 
it is more important than ever that we back our words with real 
solutions, real resources.
  That is why the amendment by Senator Shaheen to the opioid bill will 
be important. I hope it gets every consideration, and I hope it passes.
