Meeting i have to attend to make a quorum down the hall here. So im going to to start out. I know you want to introduce one person. Are you under a time constraint . Because if you are, ill give you the courtesy of going ahead. Mr. Chairman, i can wait until the regular okay. So i welcome our panelists today to our hearing on the oneyear anniversary of the support act. This landmark statute, which many of us had a hand in developing, responded to the Opioid Epidemic on multiple fronts. That crisis affected every corner of our nation with approximately 130 americans dying from an overdose every single day. Weve devoted a lot of federal resources to tackling the crisis, and i look forward to hearing from the Surgeon General on this, of this administrations efforts to implement the support act. Now its on its oneyear anniversary. I also commend dr. Adams for launching his own unique initiatives to help raise Public Awareness about the risk of the opioid misuse. Challenges remain, however,
