Summary
Rep. Nicole Malliotakis (R-N.Y.) has urged newly-confirmed U.S. Attorney General Todd Blanche to shut down Biden administration-funded heroin injection sites in New York City, arguing they violate federal law and attract criminal activity. Malliotakis praised a Trump executive order prohibiting federal funds for such facilities and introduced a bill to further defund them nationally, expressing hope that a new Trump administration would close these sites.
