“Robert Houton

Houton is running to stop the fentanyl crisis. Fentanyl overdoses in the state increased 108% from 2018 to 2021, Houton said. His children have friends who died from overdoses.

Hudson says he helped politicians create legislation to combat fentanyl usage, the Fentanyl Safe Testing and Overdose Prevention Act in the U.S. Senate. The Senate bill would amend the Controlled Substances Act to clarify that the possession and transportation of fentanyl or xylazine test strips are not illegal. The legislation is co-sponsored by 10 senators including Maryland Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D).

The Boston-born candidate also wants to address affordable housing. One of his proposals is to transition some of the state’s commercial real estate properties into affordable housing.

Houton decided to run after the fentanyl legislation was introduced in the Senate.

“Knowing that accomplishment was successful amplified the urgency [of the Senate run],” Houton said.

The non-profit founder also plans to continue the campaign after the primary.

One long-shot candidate says he worries about the ability of the Democratic frontrunners to defeat former Gov. Larry Hogan (R) in the fall.

Mission

The Training Epinephrine Administrators in Medication (TEAM) Association was formed in response to the urgent, currently unmet need for the American public to have available to them more opportunities and locations throughout their communities to receive epinephrine auto-injector training so they can administer an epinephrine auto-injector in the event, they, a member of their family, a friend or an individual in the community suffers a life-threatening anaphylactic attack. The TEAM Association is working with the U.S. Congress to enact federal legislation into federal law to achieve this goal of expanding epinephrine auto-injector training which will save lives, especially children and teenagers’ lives. In recent years, a number of states have shown leadership in expanding epinephrine training opportunities for the public through enacting laws within their respective states. For example, in 2017, Wisconsin enacted a law expanding epinephrine auto-injector training to individuals to administer epinephrine auto-injectors in the event an individual suffers a life-threatening anaphylactic attack. This law has saved lives. In 2019, Governor Ned Lamont (D-CT) signed into law Public Act No. 19-19 which also expanded the opportunity for the public to become trained in administering epinephrine autoinjectors. While these and other laws may encompass more than the TEAM Association’s singular mission, namely, to educate the public and expand the opportunity for the public to receive training in administering epinephrine auto-injectors which will save lives. The state laws serve as a precedent in demonstrating the need and urgency for enactment of federal legislation into law to save lives. As the TEAM Association works with U.S. Senators, U.S. Representatives, and their staff to introduce and enact a law expanding the opportunity for the public to become trained to administer an epinephrine autoinjector, we invite you, the public, First Responders, health professionals and fellow advocates to join in support of our missionary goal which is growing into the largest legacy public health safety initiative in years if not decades!
