As drug overdoses continue to rise, combatting the flow of fentanyl has taken center stage in America's fight against opioid abuse. Senator Joni Ernst (R-IA) and Senator Tim Kaine (D-VA) join to discuss their bi-partisan push to designate the fentanyl crisis as a national security threat.

Later, they talk about their bill, the Disrupt Fentanyl Trafficking Act of 2023, and what authority it would give federal agencies to seek out the root of fentanyl trafficking and combat the crisis.
