ASAM signed onto a letter sent to the Senior Advisor to the President regarding the Office of Management and Budget's (OMB) proposed budget which would slash funding for the Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) and drug control program funding.

The letter highlights the importance of the Drug Free Communities (DFC) program, which provides funding directly to communities to prevent drug use, and the High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area (HIDTA) program, which coordinates federal, state, and local law enforcement, streamlines efforts to dismantle drug trafficking organizations.
