In news you WONT see on the liberal/progressive media, President Donald Trump signed a bill into law on Wednesday that classifies fentanyl-related drugs as more dangerous substances as part of the president's broader crackdown on the country's opioid epidemic. The bill, called the Halt All Lethal Trafficking (HALT) of Fentanyl Act, was a Republican-led effort but gained wide bipartisan support in the House and Senate. It places fentanyl-related substances permanently into ScheduleI of the Controlled Substances Act, which means crimes related to the illicit drugs will require prison sentences.
