Drug Enforcement Administration Acting Administrator Uttam Dhillon statement on signing of fentanyl legislation

The DEA is grateful for the President’s leadership on this issue as we continue our fight to combat the nation’s opioid epidemic. This legislation is critical to DEA’s mission - to keep Americans safe by keeping these dangerous drugs off the streets. We look forward to working with our partners in the Administration and Congress to permanently schedule these drugs.
