Congressman Mike Turner (OH-10)'s TREAT Act to increase access to substance abuse treatment was included today in the Bipartisan Heroin Task Force's Legislative Agenda.

"The inclusion of the TREAT Act in the Bipartisan Heroin Task Force's Legislative Agenda is a huge step forward in addressing the opioid epidemic," said Congressman Turner.

Chairman Mike Turner (OH-10) of the House Armed Services Subcommittee on Tactical Air and Land Forces released the following statement after Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei blamed Iran's "enemies" for protests against the Iranian government:

Chairman Mike Turner (OH-10) of the House Armed Services Subcommittee on Tactical Air and Land Forces released the following statement on President Donald Trump's America First National Security Agenda:

"This week, Congress will have the opportunity to ensure national security by voting to fully fund national defense at the levels authorized by the FY18 NDAA. Expecting our military to successfully operate on a system of fictional and unreliable budgeting is incredibly irresponsible. A vote against funding what we have already promised our troops would be playing politics with their lives. I encourage both the House and Senate to take swift action to rebuild our readiness."
