Abstract

A February 6 hearing by the House Energy and Commerce Committee, Subcommittee on Health focused on fentanyl. Despite recommendations by two physicians and a university professor against doing so, the full House passed the HALT Fentanyl Act later that day. Congressman Brett Guthrie (R‐Kentucky), Chairman of the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, and Congressman Earl L. "Buddy" Carter (Georgia‐R), chairman Subcommittee on Health, sponsored the bill, which passed by a vote of 312 to 108. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
