At a drug summit Wednesday in Atlanta, Trump gave a progress report on the efforts of his administration.

"My administration is deploying every resource at our disposal to empower you, to support you and to fight right by your side," he said.

Trump's speech came one day after his administration brought its first criminal charges against a major drug distributor — Rochester Drug Co-Operative is accused of turning a blind eye to thousands of suspicious orders for opioid pain killers.

"There is just nothing going to stop us, no matter how you cut it," said Trump.

In his speech, he also announced his administration's commitment to set aside $6 billion for things like youth prevention and overdose-reversing drugs.

"We're going for even bigger numbers this year," he vowed, going on to list other administration accomplishments like convincing China to designate fentanyl, or synthetic heroin, as a controlled substance and cracking down on online sales.

Critics, though, say it's not enough.

Last year nearly 49,000 Americans died from opioid overdoses — that number up 17 percent from 2017.

The two top painkillers were fentanyl and heroin.

Some of the states hardest hit include New Hampshire, West Virginia, Iowa, Pennsylvania and Ohio.

And in Chicago alone this week, police are investigating 13 overdoses and four deaths from heroin.

"We will work. We will pray. And we will fight for the day when every family across our land can live in a drug-free America," said Trump. Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
