West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey told Newsmax Wednesday that the federal government should “classify fentanyl as a weapon of mass destruction.”
“It is an absolute travesty that we should have to press in order to convince [President Joe] Biden’s administration to do its job while fentanyl has now become the No. 1 killer of individuals between the ages of 18 to 46. It’s outrageous at a level that I think most people can’t fathom,” Morrisey said during “The Chris Salcedo Show” Wednesday. “The first thing I want to do is I want to make sure that we’re going to classify fentanyl as a weapon of mass destruction. The reason that’s so important is because then we’ll get the extra federal agency resources Department of Defense resources to treat it as seriously as it is.”
