Senator Tammy Baldwin secures $2 million for a Wisconsin center to fight the fentanyl crisis.

U.S. Senator Tammy Baldwin secured $2 million for the Wisconsin Opioid Overdose Response Center at UW-Madison to fight the fentanyl crisis, which causes over 75% of opioid overdose deaths. The funding could be at risk due to potential federal budget cuts under the Trump administration. Baldwin supports the center as part of her efforts to combat the opioid epidemic, including her FEND Off Fentanyl Act and a funding bill providing $4.6 billion nationwide for prevention and treatment.
