Safehouse, a non-profit organization based in Pennsylvania, hopes to open America's first safe injection site in Philadelphia as a means of overdose prevention. In response, the US Attorney for the Philadelphia area, William McSwain, said that even though Safehouse may have good intentions, opening a safe injection site would be going too far. McSwain expresses that this would only normalize drug use and believes that it would not help to solve the opioid crisis. After McSwain and the Trump administration decided to sue Safehouse in February 2019, Safehouse hired its own set of lawyers to counter-sue the government. The Trump Administration is acting under the Controlled Substances Act which states that “managor control[ling any place, regardless of compensation, for the purpose of unlawfully using a controlled substance,” is illegal. Safehouse and its representatives argue that this law does not take into consideration that a safe injection site is for public health reasons and meant to save lives. One of Safehouse's main arguments is that preventing the establishment of these safe injection sites would go against Safehouse's Board of Director's right to freely practice their religion which emphasizes the Judeo-Christian ideal of "preserving life".
