Issue Position: Opioid Epidemic

Issue Position

Tom is working to help the public be more informed and educated on the opioid problem in Illinois. As a county board member, Tom has hosted forums to help bring awareness to this issue and let families know where to get help. Having treatment programs and support available for those with addiction is very important. As State Representative Tom wants to continue his outreach and work with other agencies to make sure we expand our points of access so that people suffering from addiction can get the care that is needed. Tom will also work for ways our state can assist our local law enforcement. We need to put a stop to the criminals bringing these drugs into our communities.
