House SubCommittee on , Thursday, Chairman (M Souder (R-IN), Witness ONDCP J Walters

Chair's opening statement: The Chairman is bringing up the massive cuts to the (A, B, and Haida?) programs, related to drug enforcement.  Concerned about Federal/State+Local cooperation.  Some increases in treatment programs.
  Elimination and level funding for programs, "Safe and Drug Free Schools" eliminated.  Reducing demand is a crucial, he says.

Chairman ONDCP "Tax dollers should be spent wisely or not at all."

Chairman claims drug use soared after the fact of Clinton changing White House (ONDCP?) staff from 120 to 20.  Here are some facts on teen drug use, here and a graph. Claims a one-shot increase in anti-steriods funding sounds more like a headline grabber than an actual policy.
• Effort to sustain programs that are working is something we all believe in.  I guess he says the Drug Safe Schools program is worthless.
• Real cheap shot, the truth is more than half goes to interdiction, law enforcement, and internatinoal.
