Trump has to "renew" his emergency declaration this month. Maybe that will push them towards actually doing something.

Currently, the Fed. Gov't is spending $500 million a year on the opioid crisis which takes 50,000 lives and costs the economy $500 billion. In terms of action, it's all talk so far, but the talk is going in the right direction. In the Fall, Rob Portman of Ohio proposed $45 billion over ten years for the opioid crisis. This week, the two NH senators proposed $25 billion over two years, with a lot of it going to medicare and medicaid for actual treatment.
