Last year, the Biden Administration used funds from a $30 million federal grant program for “safe smoking kits/supplies,” which included providing Americans with crack pipes. After, Senator Rubio secured a prohibition of taxpayer funds in the Fiscal Year 2023 Omnibus.
U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) reintroduced the Cutting Rampant Access to Crack Kits (CRACK) Act to prohibit any federal funds from directly or indirectly purchasing, supplying, or distributing crack pipes or similar drug paraphernalia to smoke or inhale illicit narcotics.
“It is pure insanity to think the federal government should fund crack pipes. This legislation will make certain that taxpayer dollars can never pay for crack pipes, and given the Biden Administration’s previous position, I look forward to their vigorous support.” – Senator Rubio
Senators Rick Scott (R-FL), Roger Marshall (R-KS), Steve Daines (R-MT) and Mike Braun (R-IN) are original cosponsors.

RUBIO Y COLEGAS REINTRODUCEN EL CRACK ACT
El año pasado, la Administración Biden usó fondos de un programa de subvenciones federales, un total de $30 millones de dólares para “equipos/suministros seguros para fumar”, que incluía otorgarles a pipas de crack. Después, el senador Rubio aseguró una prohibición de fondos de los impuestos para estos artículos en el Ómnibus del Año Fiscal 2023.
El senador estadounidense Marco Rubio (R-FL) y colegas volvieron a presentar una legislación para prohibir cualquier inversión, directa o indirectamente, para la compra o distribución de pipas de crack o parafernalia de drogas similares que se usan para fumar o inhalar narcóticos ilícitos.
“Es una absoluta locura el pensar que el gobierno federal debería financiar las pipas de crack. Esta legislación garantizará que el dinero de los contribuyentes nunca pueda pagar dichas pipas y, dada la previa postura de la Administración Biden, espero su vigoroso apoyo”. – Senador Rubio
Rubio fue acompañado por los senadores Rick Scott (R-FL), Roger Marshall (R-KS), Steve Daines (R-MT) y Mike Braun (R-IN).
