purdue pharma has profited off of the suffering of so many families and communities.nstead of accepting responsibility of the harm they have caused, they are seeking to have a new poll in our -- use a loophole in our banking system to evade accountability. the sackler act would ensure that bad actors who have not filed for bankruptcy but have -- are hiding behind their companies that a file for bankruptcy like the sacklers to make sure they are not prohibited from using the bankruptcy process to obtain legal relief from government lawsuits brought against them. the sacklers can't have it both ways. for years they have falsely claimed the family is not involved with produce marketing and the marketing of the addiction of oxycontin, but at the same time they are trying to absolve themselves of accountability by obtaining legal releases for themselves with the purdue bankruptcy. they are going to pertain -- obtain their ownership of foreign manufacturers for several years, proposing to pay the $4.2 billion settlement, by selling more opioids overseas. it is easily disapp

because purdue pharma and the sackler family had lied to the public.one of the first ads come this goes back to 2005, one of one of the first ads, get this, ray couple of of guys in a row boat fishing and one guy complaining about his arthritis and in the ad recommending oxycontin. you know, itt was just totally egregious and what they were doing here. meanwhile, in my district, bodies were piling up. i had to file a residential facility for children, for adolescents, because we had not had -- well, we were called locating children in adult facilities. i had to dig deep, and i still have a waiting list to get into a residential facility for children rather, because ago from oxycontin to hear one. i do want to go back to the testimony that was referred to by mr. keefe, but i want to ask attorney general healey, so there's a clear e-mail in item three on the record right now that demonstrates that there was communications, direct communications between richard sackler and his soon-to-be ceo mr. friedman. mr. friedman writes we're well aware of theie view

all while purdue pharma's bankruptcy negotiation is still being ironed out. such actions are questionable judgment to say the least. that said, putting the sackler family and its alleged wrongdoings aside, today's hearing is nothing more than a textbook example of the government targeting private citizens. and it should be gravely concerning to all of us. if the chairwoman were serious about her bill, she would have held a joint hearing with judiciary. moreover, if she were serious about stopping the opioid epidemic, she would be holding a hearing on the border crisis that is refueling the opioid crisis and bringing more of these dangerous drugs into our communities. when i was at the border in april, a sharp customs and border protection agent had just caught a smuggler trying to smuggle thousands of pills of fentanyl hidden inside a hollowed-out section of a wooden table. this is the real problem our country currently faces. millions of pills flooding across our southern border. three times we have asked our chairwoman to hold an open hearing. three times w

purdue pharma should be held accountable and the sackler family should be held accountable. every one of us agree with that. i have been sitting here, trying to understand the purpose of this committee hearing today. i've listened to many democrat members on this committee chastise republicans and imply that they didn't want to hold anyone accountable. we want to hold everyone accountable. and i've heard many democrats saw weed into to pass the sackler bill that you referenced countless times today. so i've looked that bill up. that bill has been assigned to the judiciary committee not oversight committee. my question is, since the democrats, since you all are in power, you have complete power, you have the presidency. you have the house and by virtue of the vice president, you have the senate. if you want to pass the sackler act, bring it up for a vote. why are you yelling at republicans? we agree that the sackler family should be held accountable. i come from a baking background. i understand the bankruptcy laws. i many detested by the bankruptcy laws. i see people like th

the sackler family and purdue pharma have testified before on capitol hill. it's certainly not the first hearing on their role in the opioid crisis. this from december of last year. members of the sackler family asked by chairwoman carolyn maloney of the oversight reform committee if they would apologize for purdue pharma's role in the opioid crisis. this is kathy sackler, the former purdue pharma vice president. >> i have tried to figure out, is there anything that i could have done differently, knowing what i knew then, not what i know now. and i have to say, i can't -- there is nothing that i can find that i would have done differently based on what i believed and understood then and what i learned from management and the reports to the board and what i learned from my colleagues on the board. and it is extremely distressing. and -- >> mrs. sackler, will you apologize for the role that you played in the opioid crisis? >> i echo much of what my cousin said. but i will say to the american people, i am deeply and profoundly sorry that oxycontin has played a r

. >> seth: so, you know, this is about the sackler family and their company, purdue pharma, which wasey first got involved in this pharmaceutical company, they always appreciated the value of keeping the sackler name away from the actual pharmaceutical company what was it that made them think that was so valuable from, you know, years ago? >> this was the thing i found so fascinating, was looking back. i mean, to some extent the oxycontin story from recent decades is familiar. but for me, looking back at the history of this family going back to the 1950s, you saw that there was this weird thing where they had a kind of mania for putting their name on buildings, on museums, on university halls. there's -- my favorite example is if you got to london, to the tate modern, there's an escalator you can ride on, and you get to the top of the escalator, and there's a sign saying "you are riding the sackler escalator. so there's this tendency to put the name on all of these philanthropic gifts, but to keep it off of the family business. so you have this weird phenomenon where i think for a lon
