What progress has the White House made on addressing opioids?

On average, 115 people die every day due to opioid overdose, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The White House declared the opioid crisis a “public health emergency” last October and last week held a summit where President Trump praised the death penalty for drug dealers, a statement that was shocking to many. The Washington Post’s Katie Zezima joins Hari Sreenivasan.
