I find it extremely misleading to promote your non-profit as a drug-free org, while accepting and PARTNERING with pharma lobbying groups. Said group is actively putting out misinfo to policy-makers to change standard of care to their drug. Looking at you @ToEndAddiction ⬇️
Voices for Non-Opioid choices. Pacira’s lobbying group. They wrote the #NOPAIN act. This isn’t to help patients, but to make their product the standard of care for post-op and beyond. 
And in the 2nd tweet, you see they don’t take money from opioid-makers that were involved in litigation, BUT both Pacira and Alkermes have used deceptive marketing. google.com/amp/s/www.poli…
I’m not anti-pharma, BUT the fact recovery groups have demolished opioid makers (thereby crippling pain patient’s ability to be heard in the lobbying realm) and yet continue to receive money and influence the public with THEIR pharma companies? Not ethical. @RyanForRecovery
If we’re to all work together for the good of marginalized patients (both SUD and pain) we need to be on the same page. That includes equal ground when it comes to being heard in the policy realm. Money talks and we have none. But I can assure you Pacira and Alkermes have plenty.
