addicts should be patients not prisoners. he did it in massachusetts. as director of substance abuse services. there his initiative thousands included a high school for teens in recovery. and -- expanding drug courts like this one in washington, d.c. where offenders can choose treatment over jail. and the charges can be dropped. you know that there are people watching this interview. and they're saying to themselves, oh, great he wants to own the jails and let the drug addicts out. >> uh-huh. >> we have to base our policy on scientific understanding. we have had really great models. and evaluated models to show we can simultaneously divert people away from the criminal justice system without increase in crime. it reduces crime. >> reporter: he pursues reform with the passion of the converted because he himself is recovering from addiction. back in 1988, he was a university administrator whose car slammed into

he was drunk. in truth he had been drunk for years. >> did you love drinking? >> i would say i had an unhealthy love affair with drinking. you know, i grew up as this kind of insecure kid. you know, kind of making my way. and you know, drinking took all of that away. you know, people drink and do drugs for a reason because it makes them feel good. until it doesn't anymore. >> reporter: is it true after the accident you wok up handcuffed to a gurney? >> i did. i did. and you know you think to yourself. how did i get to this point? you know in my life? >> that point included imminent eviction from his apartment because the booze had washed away all of the money. >> very wise judge said, michael, you have two options. you can either get care for your drinking problem or we can continue with criminal proceedings. >> it was at that pin the that you walked into this church and went to the --

in the basement? >> i did. >> reporter: what was the first meeting like? it's hard for me to talk about this. not from a since of sadness. from a sense of tremendous gratitude. this was the first time that i raised my hand and said that i was an alcoholic and that i had a problem. with the miraculous thing about that movement, people rally around you in ways. addiction is such an isolating incident in your life. you feel alone. and, you know, when you -- when you admit, when you come into a fellowship like this, and people just surround you and say, we will help you, that you are not alone. that we have been through it before. and you will get through it. just, just gives you such great hope. >> he has been alcohol free for 27 years. today, he oversees 2

little training on addiction. and quite honestly has been promoting and continues to promote the overprescribing of these pain medications. some are born addicted. we met at massachusetts general where dr. leslie kerzner weans infants off opioids. >> give him this little bit of morphine in his cheek. >> in the last decade the number of expectant mothers on opioids has increased five fold. >> if they don't get the treatment they can have a seizure that is what we worry about. >> how is a person addicted to prescription pain medication find themselves on heroin. >> prescription drugs and heroin act on similar ways on the brain. unfortunately, heroin becomes of its widespread availability is a lot cheaper on the streets of boston and many places around this country. >> heroin is cheaper than prescription painkillers. >> a bag of heroin can be as

eyes fluttered. sat up and speak. >> must have looked like a miracle. >> it is surreal. >> reporter: and they got to the victim in time due to a controversial innovation called the good samaritan law. >> one of the changes that came under the administration was some one involved in drugs if there is an overdose they could call 911. they would not be arrest ford having drugs on the premesis? >> correct. >> what difference did that make? >> opened the floodgates of people calling 911. >> today, 32 states have a similar 911 law and the antidote is carried by 800 police departments. in massachusetts, botacelli made treating addiction routine health care so patients can get opioid treatments now in a doctor's office. >> things have been going well for you. ca will figure out the path you

recovery. >> reporter: today the affordable care act requires most insurance companies to cover addiction treatment. >> i often say substance abuse is one of the last diseases where we let people reach their most acute phase of this disorder before we offer them intervention. you have heard the phrase, hitting bottom. well we don't say that with any other disorder. so the medical community has a key role to play in terms of doing a better job of identifying people. in their early stages of their disease. in doing a better job at treating people, who have this disorder. >> notice the word. disorder. he prefers it to addiction. he wants to lift the stigma, changing the language as he did this past october in a rally on the national mall. we must choose to come out in the light and be treated with dignity and respect. so let's stop whispering about this disease. ou

because we want an america where everyone is treated with respect and where there work their valued. it's clear that donald trump doesn't believe we are stronger together. he has abused his primary opponents and their families, attacked the press for asking tough questions, denigrated muslims and immigrants, he wants to win by stoking fear and rubbing salt in wounds. and reminding us daily just how great he is. >> republican donald trump was celebrating the start of the fall campaign at one of his golf courses in suburban new york city. >> to those who voted for someone else in either party i will work hard to earn your support. and i will work very hard to earn that support. to all of those bernie sanders voters who have been left out of in the the cold by a rigged system of superdelegates, we welcome you with open arms. now, i know some people say i'm too much of a fighter.

my preference is always peace however. and i have shown that. i have shohawn tr t foa long time. i built an extraordinary business on relationships and deals that benefit all parties involved. always. i have fought for my family, i have fought for my business, i thought for my employees, and now i am going to fight for you the american people. like nobody has ever fought before.

>> trump's vow to unify the party may be easier said than done. house speaker paul ryan said it was racist for donald trump to claim that a mexican-american judge couldn't be fair in the fraud case against trump university. senate republican leader mitch mcconnell said that trump's statement was just plain stupid. trump said that the judge was biased because of trump's immigration policies including mass deportation of illegal immigrants and the plan to build a wall on the mexican border. ryan spoke with our john

dickerson, the cbs news political director and anchor of "face the nation." >> you endorsed donald trump last week, been about a week, how is that sitting? >> well it could be better. i just obviously, you have heard me disavow the comments regarding this judge. i don't think that those are appropriate comments by any stretch of the mind. hopefully this is an inflexion point. hopefully a lesson will be learned here. we can move forward with a better campaign. >> senator sasse, hillary clinton called those racist comments, do you agree? >> no, i do think those comments are racist comments. that's why i have disavowed them completely. what bothers me about the comments it doesn't reflkt who we are or what we think or how we think as republicans. it's antithetical to what we believe in our principals. hopefully, he'll, not only not continue to say these things. but learn from this and move forward and then offer the country a positive vision that is inclusive. that speaks to people's higher ideals. >> explain what that means. it's not what we believe. some people get confused. they hear labels and all that. what to you is kind of -- >> we believe in equality. we believe that the notion that ethnicity or race affects the way they do their job is completely the opposite of what we believe. we believe in equality of opportunity. look, the republican party was founded in a schoolhouse in wisconsin by abolitionists.

our first president was abraham lincoln. so we are the party of lincoln, the party of reagan, the party of equality, the party of upward mobility. so that is what we think that. 's the what we feel. so when comments run contrary to that, it is incumbent upon us as party leaders to call them out. >> the problem for a lot of republicans is they're afraid they won't be incumbents for long. john it seems like paul ryan was saying that he was going to marry donald trump with the expectation that he would be able to change him. >> yeah, well he hopes he'll change. but this is now the fourth time or so, that paul ryan has had to rebuke donald trump. what we sawis the crucible of the house speaker. he was at an event where he was laying out his agenda to fight poverty. the first plank in a multi-plank effort to put forward the house republican agenda. before he could get to that, he

had to make it very clear that the nominee

>> the overdose death of rock superstar prince focused attention on opioid addiction in our society. prescription drug abuse is often seen as a medical problem. but illegal drug abuse as traditionally been treated as a criminal activity. now, after 40 years and a trillion dollars, the war on drugs is changing drastically. scott pelley and "60 minutes" spoke to america's drug czar who claims he doesn't even like that title. >> it's actually a title that i don't like. >> reporter: why? >> because -- >> it conotes the old war on drug focus to the work that we do. it portrays we are clinging to kind of failed policies and failed practices in the past. >> reporter: are you saying that the way we have waged the war on drugs for more than 40 years has been all wrong?

>> is has been all wrong. >> blunt force didn't knock out the drug epidemic. 21 million americans are addicted to drugs or alcohol. and half of all federal inmates are in for drug crimes. >> we can't arrest and incarcerate people. it is inhumane. it is ineffective. it cost us billions upon billions to keep doing this. >> what have we learned? >> we learned addiction is a brain disease. not a moral failing. not about bad people choosing to continue to use drugs because they lack will power. you know we don't expect people with cancer just to stop having cancer. >> aren't they doing it to themselves. isn't a heroin addict making that choice? >> of course not. the hallmark of addiction is that it changes your brain chemistry. it actually affects that part of

your brain responsible for judgment. >> that is the essence of michael's approach. addicts should be patients not prisoners. he did it in massachusetts. as director of substance abuse services. there his initiative thousands included a high school for teens in recovery. and -- expanding drug courts like this one in washington, d.c. where offenders can choose treatment over jail. and the charges can be dropped. you know that there are people watching this interview. and they're saying to themselves, oh, great he wants to open the jails and let the drug addicts out. >> uh-huh. >> we have to base our policy on scientific understanding. we have had really great models. and evaluated models to show we can simultaneously divert people away from the criminal justice system without increase in crime. it reduces crime. >> reporter: botticelli pursues reform with the passion of the converted because he himself is recovering from addiction. back in 1988, he was a university administrator whose car slammed into a truck.

botticelli was drunk. in truth he had been drunk for years. >> reporter: did you love drinking? >> i would say i had an unhealthy love affair with drinking. you know, i grew up as this kind of insecure kid. you know, kind of making my way. and you know, drinking took all of that away. you know, people drink and do drugs for a reason because it makes them feel good. until it doesn't anymore. >> reporter: is it true after the accident you wok up handcuffed to a gurney? >> i did. i did. and you know you think to yourself. how did i get to this point? you know in my life?% >> reporter: that point included imminent eviction from his apartment because the booze had washed away all of the money. >> very wise judge said, michael, you have two options. you can either get care for your drinking problem or we can continue with criminal proceedings. >> reporter: it was at that point that you walkedo

>> i did. >> reporter: what was the first meeting like? it's hard for me to talk about this. not from since of sadness. from a sense of tremendous gratitude. this was the first time that i raised my hand and said that i was an alcoholic and that i had a problem. with the miraculous thing about that movement, people rally around you in ways. addiction is such an isolating incident in your life. you feel alone. and, you know, when you -- when you admit, when you come into a fellowship like this, and people just surround you and say, we will help you, that you are not alone. that we have been through it before. and you will get through it. just, just gives you such great hope. >> he has been alcohol free for 27 years. today, he oversees a 26 billion dollar budget across 16 government agencies.

just over half of the money goes to drug enforcement. what do you say to those who argue and there are many. if you lock down the southern border you solve the drug problem. >> i think it is overly simplistic to say any one strtegy will change the focus and change the trajectory of drug use. >> for example he says the heroin crisis was created here at home. >> we know one of the drivers of heroin has been the misuse of pain medication. if we are going to deelt with heroin and heroin use in the punited states. we have to focus on reducing the magnitude of the prescription drug use issue. >> many pain drugs are opioids like heroin. and the number of opioid prescriptions has risen from 76 million in 1991, to 207 million today. e

that gets little training on pain. little training on addiction. and quite honestly has been promoting and continues to promote the overprescribing of these pain medications. some are born addicted. we met bottacelli, at massachusetts general where dr. leslie kerzner weans infants off opioids. >> give him this little bit of morphine in his cheek. >> in the last decade the number of expectant mothers on opioids has increased five fold. >> if they don't get the treatment they can have a seizure that is what we worry about. >> how is a person addicted to prescription pain medication find themselves on heroin. >> prescription drugs and heroin act on similar ways on the brain. unfortunately, heroin becomes of its widespread availability is a lot cheaper on the streets of boston and many places around this country. >> heroin is cheaper than prescription painkillers.

>> a bag of heroin can be as cheap as $5, $10. >> more than 120 americans die of drug overdecembers each day. that is more than car wrecks or gun violence to. save lives, he started an experiment in 2010 with the quincy massachusetts police. lieutenant patrick glen is head of narcotics. >> when some one dies of an everdose, the community becomes very small. the everyone knows each other even in a large city as ours. in the past four to six months some officers lost children. off awe in a city of 100,000, did i understand you to say that some of your officers have lost children to drug overdoses. >> how many? >> two, two did. two lost sons. awe in what period of time? >> in the last sex months. >> reporter: >> he helped arm every quincy officer with a nasal spray antidote for overdose. lieutenant grown saw it work on an unconscious addict. >> within 45 second to a minute. they moved around. eyes fluttered.

>> must have looked like a miracle. >> it is surreal. >> reporter: and they got to the victim in time due to a controversial innovation called the good samaritan law. >> one of the changes that came under the administration was some one involved in drugs if there is an overdose they could call 911. they would not be arrest ford having drugs on the premesis? >> correct. >> what difference did that make? >> opened the floodgates of people calling 911. >> today, 32 states have a similar 911 law and the antidote is carried by 800 police departments. in massachusetts, botacelli made treating addiction routine health care so patients can get opioid treatments now in a doctor's office. >> things have been going well for you.

we will figure out the path you can walk down to stay in recovery. >> reporter: today the affordable care act requires most insurance companies to cover addiction treatment. >> i often say substance abuse is one of the last diseases where we let people reach their most acute phase of this disorder before we offer them intervention. you have heard the phrase, hitting bottom. well we don't say that with any other disorder. so the medical community has a key role to play in terms of doing a better job of identifying people. in their early stages of their disease. in doing a better job at treating people, who have this disorder. >> notice the word. disorder. he prefers it to addiction. he wants to lift the stigma, changing the language as he did p

the light and be treated with dignity and respect. so let's stop whispering about this disease. >> you can see scott's full report on the website. cbsnews.com. the "cbs overnight news" will be right back. like leather, skin is stronger when it's hydrated. that's why dove men+care bodywash has a unique hydrating formula to leave skin healthier and stronger. our bacteria family's been on this alright kiddos!erations. everybody off the backpack, we made it to the ottoman. i like to watch them clean, but they'll never get me on the mattress! finally there's a disinfectant mist designed for sofas, mattresses and more. introducing new lysol max cover. its innovative cap has a 2x wider spray that kills 99.9% of bacteria. max cover is another great way to lysol that.
