Washington, DC — El senador estadounidense Marco Rubio (R-FL), junto a los senadores Joni Ernst (R-IA), Tim Scott (R-SC), Chuck Grassley (R-IA), Bill Cassidy (R-LA), Jim Inhofe (R-OK), Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV), Mike Braun (R-IN), Rick Scott (R-FL), Steve Daines (R-MT), Thom Tillis (R-NC), John Kennedy ( R-LA), John Boozman (R-AR), Tom Cotton (R-AR), John Thune (R-SD) y John Barrasso (R-WY), presentaron el CRACK Act. Esta legislación enmendaría la Sección 2706 de la Ley del Plan de Rescate Estadounidense del 2021 (PL 117-2) para prohibir que fondos públicos compren, suministren o distribuyan directa o indirectamente pipas de crack o parafernalia de drogas similares.
“Me alegra que la Administración Biden reconozca que enviar pipas de crack a los adictos de nuestra nación es una mala idea”, Rubio dijo. “Es una locura pensar que el gobierno federal financie la distribución de pipas de crack. Esta legislación garantizará que el programa nunca pueda pagar pipas de crack y, dada la postura de la Administración Biden, espero su apoyo”.
A principios de esta semana, el Departamento de Salud y Servicios Humanos (HHS, por sus siglas en inglés) parecía confirmar que parte del programa de subvenciones de $30 millones de dólares se destinaría a “kits/suministros para fumar”, que con frecuencia incluyen pipas de crack. La Administración Biden cambió su curso, lo que provocó la protesta de grupos activistas que argumentan que “la distribución de pipas es atención médica”.
