Report: Biden admin to send crack pipes to drug addicts to advance ‘racial equity’
The Biden administration will soon fund the distribution of crack pipes to drug addicts in underserved communities for the purpose of “advancing racial equity,” the Washington Free Beacon reported.
What are the details?
The baffling measure is included in the Department of Health and Human Services’ fiscal year 2022 Harm Reduction Program Grant program. In the document, the crack pipe plan is described as the dispersion of federal government funds for the slightly more anodyne “smoking kits/supplies.”
But a spokesman for the department recently told the Washington Free Beacon that the grant money will do exactly what the headline says it will do.
The distributed kits will provide safer pipes for drug addicts to use when they smoke crack cocaine, crystal methamphetamine, or “any illicit substance.” The spokesman reportedly explained that the supplied pipes will reduce users’ chances of becoming infected. Glass pipes often used by addicts can sometimes lead to infection through cuts and sores.
