House Action Reports Second Supplement to the Legislative Week of May 9 is now available on our website: http://www.cq.com/doc/har-4886911

The supplement covers S 524, House Amendment to Comprehensive Addiction & Recovery Act. The measure combines 18 anti-opioid bills that previously passed the House into a single House amendment to the Senate-passed bill, in preparation for a House-Senate conference on the issue. The floor rule for the measure also makes in order a motion to go to conference. The House this week considered and passed a series of bipartisan bills intended to help combat and treat the growing epidemic of opioid abuse; 17 of those bills are included in the House amendment.

The measure is scheduled to be considered on Friday. The administration has expressed support for congressional efforts to combat opioid abuse, but also says that additional funding is needed.
