A congressional minority report looks at the impact of opioid pills, which were central to increase of nationwide epidemic.

Congress is asking Purdue Pharma, Mallinckrodt and Insys to explain their practices as investigation into opioid crisis continues.

Everytown for Gun Safety Action fund is spending $8 million to $10 million in four states.

In its annual report, Everytown said that 150 of the 196 candidates endorsed by its political arm in the midterm elections won seats.

“Stopping gun violence takes courage,” said former congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords, who survived an assassination attempt eight years ago and joined House members on Capitol Hill.

The suit alleges that Purdue disregarded safety and pushed doctors to prescribe high doses of OxyContin.

State measure aims to curb drug overdoses, but federal government has said such facilities are illegal and is suing Philadelphia to block a similar effort.
