Putting people back in jail or prison over and over without addressing their addictions in serious fashion almost guarantees their return.

The expense associated with drug addictions are huge. Treatment would be a good investment and a bargain in the long run

Kale

If our tax dollars are already going towards their prison expenses, we might as well pay for rehabilitation instead of continued incarceration.

Mrs. Steelman

People act in desperate ways when they're suffering from addiction. Treatment would likely reduce crime.

Bob King

Either way you spend the money. Prison, where the person comes out to live in your community with skills you may wish they didn't learn while in prison. Or hopefully successful rehab.

Treatment programs should be available, but this is not something more tax money can fix - don't forget personal responsibility!

Stop rewarding the screw ups. Drug and alcohol use is a chosen action.

What is the current success rate for those that graduate the treatment and don't re-offend within 5 years of completion? Yeah . . . NO!

Because the president wants to put America first and make it as prosperous as it once was. #MAGA

Exec branch has the responsibility to manage the economy with other countries, congress can’t even produce an annual budget - look at this democrat shutdown, they want to spend another 1.5T on healthcare subsidies- sorry, we are in the hole $35T, wake up America.

Trump’s tariffs violate the constitution. Congress holds the nations purse strings. I can’t believe we hardly heard a peep from members of Congress on his actions. Spineless

Rick Martinson

Absolutely not. The Constitution gives that authority to Congress, NOT the executive branch of the government. Trump’s actions are absolutely illegal and unconstitutional. But he doesn’t care, and has been giving Congress and the American People the finger for the past 10 months.

Mike Moreno

Memo to trump...there is a document in this country called the Constitution. Read it, learn it, live it.
