President Obama's Actions to Address the Prescription Opioid and Heroin Epidemic 

Today we lose more Americans to drug overdoses than traffic accidents-and every day that passes without Congress acting to provide adequate funding to support treatment for those suffering from addiction is a missed opportunity to save lives. As Congress continues to not act, President Obama is taking additional steps to expand access to treatment.

Now physicians will be able to prescribe buprenorphine for opioid use disorder treatment to 275 instead of 100 patients. The rule aims to increase access to medication-assisted treatment and associated behavioral health supports for tens of thousands of people with opioid use disorders, while preventing diversion.

Letters to the President: Reflections on Growing Up as Muslim Americans

"Muslim Americans are as diverse as our nation itself-black, white, Latino, Asian, and Arab. Eid celebrations around the country remind us of our proud history as a nation built by people of all backgrounds; our history of religious freedom and civil liberties, and our history of innovation and strength. These legacies would not be possible without the contributions of Muslim Americans that make our country even stronger."

Feed the Future, the Obama Administration Food Security Initiative, Becomes Law 

"This game-changing development initiative - the first of my Administration - has helped increase economic growth and stem the tide of global hunger, poverty and malnutrition over the span of just a few years. While we've already accomplished so much through this collaborative global partnership, I know that with the continued effort and support that this legislation provides, we can achieve what was just a few years ago the unimaginable: We can end global poverty and hunger within our lifetimes"
