New drug testing on Obama healthcare
Administration Officials Announce U.S.-Mexico Border Security Policy: A Comprehensive Response & Commitment | The White House
Quote:
We are renewing our commitment to reduce the demand for illegal drugs here at home.- Approximately $5 billion have been committed in the previous year for initiatives to reduce illicit drug use within our borders.
- The Obama Administration is focusing on integrating substance abuse services into national healthcare systems with early screening, diagnosis and intervention as regular preventative medicine to reach the millions of patients who need treatment, and as a means to prevent millions more from becoming dependent.
- Expanding treatment capacity of drug courts in the United States is a priority of the Obama Administration. The FY09 Omnibus includes $63.9 million for drug courts that bring judicial, law enforcement, and treatment communities, as well as other social and public services together with the goal of breaking a non-violent offender’s drug addiction.
