Addressing Substance Use Disorders

Throughout our country, mental health crises and substance use disorders have increased at alarming rates. Occupational therapists around the nation can play a major role in providing treatment to individuals facing these battles. Earlier this month, I introduced a bill along with Senator Maggie Hassan (D-N.H.) to break down barriers for individuals seeking treatment to combat their struggle with mental health and substance use disorders.

As ranking member of the Senate Aging Committee, I look forward to how this bill will help individuals across the nation, including many Medicare beneficiaries. Read more about this bipartisan effort

Back to School

August always signifies two things: the end of summer is near, and the beginning of a new school year is right around the corner. This comes with exciting and difficult transitions for students, parents and educators. One of the most important yet overlooked issues facing our nation is a lack of access to quality education.

Parents understand education is much more than a building. Parents should have the ability to pick education opportunities that best suit their children.

Washington Examiner op-ed.

Spilling the
#SCSweetTea
on a Presidential Scholar

This week, I’m spilling the Sweet Tea on Lauren Tolbert from Claflin University! Historically Black Colleges and Universities have a proud tradition of producing outstanding scholars across the country. Recently, senior Lauren Tolbert was named one of 86 undergraduate students to be recognized for her accomplishments in academics, leadership, civic engagement and so much more. Congratulations to her on this great achievement!
