Congressman Eric Sorensen (IL-17), Congressman Gabe Vasquez (NM-02), and Congresswoman Lori Chavez-DeRemer (OR-05) will host a bipartisan virtual press conference to announce the introduction of the Stop Fentanyl at the Border Act.

Fentanyl-related overdoses are responsible for 70,000 deaths a year in the U.S. This bipartisan bill would ensure that U.S. Customs and Border Protection has the personnel, technology, and resources necessary to prevent these deadly substances from entering the United States.

Congressman Eric Sorensen serves on the House Committee on Agriculture and the House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology. Prior to serving in Congress, Sorensen was a local meteorologist in Rockford and the Quad Cities for nearly 20 years. His district includes Illinois’ Quad Cities, Rockford, Peoria, and Bloomington-Normal.
