Trump Targets New York’s ‘Safe Injection Sites’  - Addiction/Recovery eBulletin

VIDEO – ADDICTS DIE –

July 30, 2025 – Two city-approved “safe” drug injection sites could be forced to close under a new executive order issued by President Trump, which rips the facilities, where addicts can use illegal drugs like meth, heroin and cocaine under supervision. Back in January 2021, the Third Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia previously ruled “it is a federal crime to open a supervised injection site or ‘consumption room’ for illegal drug use,” overruling the District Court for the Eastern District decision.

Earlier this year, Malliotakis reintroduced her legislation — the Defund Heroin Injection Centers Act of 2025 — which would put into law Trump’s executive order and permanently block federal funding for injection sites or “illicit operations.”

In February, she urged Attorney General Pam Bondi to close the two city injection sites operated by OnPointNYC. The two injection sites in the city are in East Harlem and Washington Heights.
