Thanks @LelandVittert for having a very important conversation last night on what it takes to save American lives. We are making steady progress but have more work to do.
Federal data reveals opioid deaths have been falling in the United States, and @DrGuptaMD tells @LelandVittert the dropping numbers are due to reduced supply and an increased focus on recovery. Gupta says successive administrations have focused on just one or the other, but "I say we do both." MORE: newsnationnow.com/politics/l…

We need to detect and stop fentanyl from entering the United States. Our bipartisan border security deal would provide funds for cutting-edge detection machines. Think of the lives that would save.

Today, on International Holocaust Remembrance Day, we mourn one of the darkest chapters in history, when six million Jews and countless others were systematically murdered. It's our responsibility to stand up to Antisemitism and hate-fueled violence everywhere.
