After pouncing and seizing their way through 2021, conservatives now "home in".
Explaining the Claim That the Biden Administration Is Funding ‘Crack Pipes’
The program provides funding for “safe smoking kits,” but it makes no specific mention of glass pipes. In response to the outcry, Biden administration officials denied offering funding for such pipes.
So who's lying?
The grant guidelines do not specify what the smoking kits should include. According to Harm Reduction International, a London-based nongovernmental organization, such kits can contain rubber mouthpieces, brass screens, lip balm, disinfectant wipes and glass stems — the “crack pipes” in question. The contents can vary based on the organization distributing the kit as well as state and local laws on the distribution of drug paraphernalia.
Moreover, the smoking kits are not specific to crack cocaine and can also be given to users of methamphetamine and opioids.
But...
Conservatives have homed in on a specific provision in an overdose prevention grant program to make a misleading claim about crack pipes.
Priceless.
if the gov didnt infest their cities with crack, you mean
