Trump also directed all executive agencies to use \u201cevery appropriate emergency authority\u201d to fight the epidemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cEnding the epidemic will require mobilization of government, local communities and private organizations. It will require the resolve of our entire country,\u201d said Trump. \u201cI want the American people to know the federal government is aggressively fighting the opioid epidemic on all fronts.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cToday\u2019s declaration, coupled with the president\u2019s direction that executive agencies use all appropriate emergency authorities and other relevant authorities, is another powerful action the Trump administration is taking in response to America\u2019s deadly opioid crisis,\u201d said acting HHS Secretary Eric D. Hargan. \u201cPresident Trump has made this national crisis a top priority since he took office in January, and we are proud to be leading in this effort at HHS. His call to action today brings a new level of urgency to the comprehensive strategy HHS unveiled under President Trump, which empowers the real heroes of this fight: the communities on the front lines of the epidemic.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hhs.gov\/challenges\">Registration<\/a> for the competition opened Oct. 26, 2017 and the submission
