Schumer both slammed and warned against a recent Washington proposal that could jeopardize the future of a federal drug fighting program Long Island law enforcement agencies depend on: HIDTA. Over the years, the High Intensity Drug Trafficking Areas (HIDTA) program has provided both millions of dollars and a lot of direct federal support for Long Island’s intelligence-sharing and drug investigation initiatives. Schumer said the HIDTA program was created to help create efficiency across multiple law enforcement agencies—and works. However, the administration’s recent budget proposal puts forth a plan that would essentially dismembering the HIDTA office and move it from the Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) directly in the White House to the Justice Department, creating needless bureaucracy and inefficiency that could translate into lives on Long Island, especially in the midst of the opioid war locals are combatting.  \r\n "}}
