MANCHIN, BRAUN INTRODUCE TYLER'S LAW TO DIRECT EMERGENCY ROOMS TO SCREEN FOR FENTANYL
Press Release
Issues: Health and Health Care Drugs
“In the last year, more than 109,000 Americans and 1,490 West Virginians died from drug related overdoses. It’s heartbreaking to lose so many lives to this devastating epidemic and Congress must take comprehensive, meaningful action to address the crisis. I’m proud to introduce this bipartisan legislation with Senator Braun to direct emergency rooms to screen for fentanyl in their patients, and I encourage my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to support this commonsense step to combat drug overdose deaths.”
