Attorney General Merrick Garland and DEA Administrator Anne Milgram addressed the 2024 DEA National Family Summit on Fentanyl. The summit, which took place recently, focused on the ongoing challenges posed by fentanyl and efforts to combat its impact.
Garland emphasized the importance of collective action in addressing the crisis. "We are here today because we know that this is a problem we cannot solve alone," he stated, highlighting the need for collaboration among various stakeholders.
Milgram echoed these sentiments, noting the critical role of family members and communities in tackling the issue. "Families are at the heart of our efforts to fight fentanyl," she said. The summit served as a platform for sharing strategies and experiences in dealing with fentanyl-related issues.
The event underscored the commitment of both federal agencies to continue their work in reducing the prevalence of fentanyl and supporting affected families across the nation.
