Visit Our Website Newsletter Sign-Up Senator Marshall Announces Drug Trafficking Reduction Funding I was proud this week to help secure $298 million for the HIDTA program in this year's government funding bill. This program brings together federal, state, local, and tribal law enforcement so they can better coordinate efforts to stop major drug trafficking operations. Here in Kansas, 14 counties are designated as HIDTA areas, meaning they face significant drug trafficking activity. The impact of this crisis is real for our state. In 2024 alone, Kansas lost 661 lives to drug overdoses — a heartbreaking reminder that this fight is about protecting our families, our neighbors, and our communities. HIDTA initiatives are already making a difference. Last year in Kansas, these efforts led to the seizure of more than 57,000 grams of fentanyl, nearly 200,000 fentanyl pills, and over 950,000 grams of methamphetamine. Every shipment taken off the streets is one less threat to a Kansas family. Drug trafficking doesn't just bring illegal substances into our state — it fuels violence, crime, and addiction that tear at the fabric of our communities. Supporting law enforcement with the tools and coordination they need is a critical step in keeping Kansas neighborhoods safe and giving families hope for a healthier future. I will continue working to ensure our law enforcement officers have the resources they need to stop traffickers and protect the people of Kansas. Click HERE to sign up for my newsletter!
