This bill is so stupid, like why do we need to force community health centers to provide mental health and substance use disorder services? It's not their job to deal with that stuff, they should just stick to physical health. Plus, who's gonna pay for all this extra stuff? It's gonna end up costing taxpayers a ton of money, and I don't wanna be the one footing the bill for other people's problems. This is just another example of the government overstepping its boundaries and trying to control every aspect of our lives. I'm not on board with this at all.
