WHAT HAPPENED TO ‘CRACK IS WACK’?: Biden Admin Funds Crack Pipe Hand Outs for ‘Racial Equity’

posted by Hannity Staff - 2.07.22

This. Is. Real.

In a move that defies all logic, the Biden Administration is moving forward with a program to distribute crack “smoking kits” to vulnerable communities in the name of “racial equity.”

According to the Washington Free Beacon, the $30 million grant program will begin in May and provide funds to nonprofits and local governments to help make drug use safer for addicts.

“Included in the grant, which is overseen by the Department of Health and Human Services, are funds for ‘smoking kits/supplies.’ A spokesman for the agency told the Washington Free Beacon that these kits will provide pipes for users to smoke crack cocaine, crystal methamphetamine, and ‘any illicit substance.’”

“HHS said the kits aim to reduce the risk of infection when smoking substances with glass pipes…. Applicants for the grants are prioritized if they treat a majority of ‘underserved communities,’ including African Americans and ‘LGBTQ+ persons,’ as established under President Joe Biden’s executive order on ‘advancing racial equity,’” WFB reports.

Sgt. Clyde Boatwright, president of the Maryland Fraternal Order of Police, says we should be preventing drug abuse rather than enabling drug users.

“If we look at more of a preventive campaign as opposed to an enabling campaign, I think it will offer an opportunity to have safer communities with fewer people who are dependable on these substances,” Boatwright told the Free Beacon.

Senator Tom Cotton (R-AR) shared the story on Twitter:

“Last week, Biden talked about being tough on crime. This week, the Biden Admin announced funds for crack pipe distribution to ‘advance racial equity.’”
