Melania Trump tweets about opioid crisis, no mention of her cyberbullying campaign

First Lady Melania Trump may be moving away from fighting against cyberbullying.

Her new mission is apparently to fight drug addiction, according to News Week.

Melania posted on twitter saying, "Opioids are destroying our youth/people. Mtg w @potus & SecPrice MD today to give my support to #STOPDRUGADDICTION"

On Thursday, President Donald Trump said he will declare the opioid crisis as a national emergency -- meaning that the government will deploy financial and medical aid in an effort to fight the opioid epidemic.

According to a White House Statement to the New York Daily News, Melania is concerned with the well-being of children, which prompted her to be included in discussions about drug addiction.

When asked why she has not gone through with her pledge to tackle cyberbullying, a spokesperson told the Daily Beast in June that she was too busy moving into the White House.
