A moderate Republican leader says that suburban women, a highly-coveted subset of U.S. voters, are increasingly looking to support candidates with solutions to address America’s opioid epidemic.
“There was a time when suburban women may have thought that they were insulated from the ravages of drug abuse,” writes Sarah Chamberlain, president of the Republican Mainstream Partnership, in a column for The Hill. “But now they know that it's everywhere and that it doesn't spare any racial, ethnic or socioeconomic group.”
Chamberlain touts the efforts of Republicans in Congress who are pushing for a variety of initiatives aimed at treating and preventing drug addiction, including the Comprehensive Addiction and Recovery Act (CARA), which passed the Senate nearly unanimously recently.
