Trump Urges Justice Department to Sue Opioids Makers
The Wall Street Journal reported on August 16, 2018, that President Trump asked Attorney General Jeff Sessions to file a major lawsuit against drug companies that “are really sending opioids at a level that it shouldn’t be happening.” Sessions said he would follow the request and file the suit in federal court rather than join existing litigation brought by 27 states.
