Will states have the tools to fight the opioid epidemic?
Witness 1: Nope. It is easy to say take some money out of the block grant to do that. The fact is the money isn’t there to be able to do all of that.
More people will die. Governors are going to have to make very difficult decisions. Before the ACA people couldn’t access addiction treatment.
Could set up a situation where different groups (eleder care, drug care, children’s care) fighting between themselves for funds.
