BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

"The opioid and fentanyl crisis has devastated families across the state who've watched their loved ones lose battles with addiction or be poisoned by fentanyl. This epidemic does not know state, county, or party lines -- it touches us all -- and we need to come together to fight it. At this year's State of the Union, I look forward to honoring all those we've lost to the opioid and fentanyl epidemic and reaffirming my commitment to work with Chief Thompson and leaders across the state to end this crisis. Whether it's cracking down on chemical suppliers and traffickers, strengthening our border, or investing in recovery and prevention services in our communities, I'm committed to tackling this epidemic and making a real difference. I thank Chief Thompson and all law enforcement who are on the front lines of this fight, and I am proud to support them."
