To the Congress of the United States: 

I am pleased to transmit the 2009 National Drug Control Strategy, consistent with the provisions of section 201 of the Office of 

National Drug Control Policy Reauthorization Act of 2006. 

My Administration released its first National Drug Control 

Strategy in 2002 with the commitment to turn the tide against a 

problem that truly threatens everything that is good about our 

country. As we prepare to pass this noble charge to a new team of 

leaders, we can look back with satisfaction on what we have 

achieved together as a Nation. From community coalitions to our 

international partnerships, we pursued a balanced strategy that 

emphasized stopping initiation, reducing drug abuse and addiction, 

and disrupting drug markets. 

The results of our efforts are clear. Together we have helped reduce teenage drug use by 25 percent since 2001. This means 

900,000 fewer American teens are using drugs. The Access to Recovery program alone has extended treatment services to more 

than 260,000 Americans. Through law enforcement cooperation and 

international partnerships, the United States has caused serious 

disruptions in the availability of drugs such as cocaine and methamphetamine, reducing the threat such drugs pose to the American 

people, while also denying profits to drug traffickers and terrorists. 

Our work is by no means complete—we must build on these efforts both to further reduce drug use and to rise to new challenges. 

I thank the Congress for its support and ask that it continue to 

support this critical endeavor. 

GEORGE W. BUSH. 

THE WHITE HOUSE, January 15, 2009.
