When you don't have the right to vote, but still have freedom of speech.... Godspeed Jelly Roll. You're doing it right.

The plane analogy - really makes you stop and think. JellyRoll seems to be such a loving and caring man, you hear it in the way he delivers his speech. Lots of Respect!

holy shoot Jelly Roll is one hell of an orator

I did drugs for 26 years I have now been cleaned 24. Your music tells the truth.

God bless Senator Sherrod Brown for helping this man give testimony before Congress. Much respect to Senator Sherrod Brown and JellyRoll. 🙏😇 God help us all. ✨

Good for Jelly Roll for grabbing the platform that he's been given and using it to (hopefully) make a difference! What a good speech he gave.

Great that you did this! Unfortunately they don't care. They don't care about kids not eating, they don't care about Vets, they don't care about health care. You're talking to people that have money to put their children in rehab. They don't care. It doesn't touch them. God bless you for doing this. I've lost people from this too.

I just found Jelly Roll, and I swear to God I want him in politics immediately

I saw this guy randomly flipping channels. He was singing. I liked his song. I looked him up. He is a good speaker. I am very impressed.

Jelly I'm so proud of you. Coming from a girl that's been in treatment, 8 times. Only I choose to never work my program, because of the pain iv lived and saw in my life. I'm 51 years old, still using trying to find away out of this he'll. You gave me hope, Thankyou, Michelle

Thank you for being a voice for the voiceless. I'm lucky enough to have made it out, but I'm tired of burying my friends and now our kids!

Very eloquently spoken there, Mr.DeFord. Much respect.

That guy to his right behind him is deeply touched by him. You can tell this issue really hits home

Amen Jelly Roll! #FACTS #TRUTH Now this IS a man we need for president. Not like all the other fools in our government positions (I refuse to call them "leaders") who dont, HE SPEAKS FACTS BECAUSE HE TELLS TRUTH. GOD BLESS YOU JELLY ROLL. Pray for our families. We seriously, very seriously need it in this troubled world.

This man continues to impress me. He is doing a great work. 👍🏼 Way to go Jelly Roll. 👏🏼

I lost my nephew to this horrific drug. Thank you Jason for speaking out. Love!

Thank you, Jelly Roll. I lost my 1st born, my beautiful daughter to addiction, 21 months ago. God Bless

And this is why I've changed my life around bc it's not just bc of his music but he's doing his thing for the ppl and tries to reach out to ppl that lived that life style and we made it out. Good job jelly roll... Ur hitting home every time I turn around ...thank you

Good for you this is a real, HUGE problem in our country and the government is RESPONSIBLE for causing it when they (government) restricted access to opioids for ppl who genuinely need pain relief This is a DISGRACE AND NEEDS TO END

Thank you J for taking the stand in support of our loved ones. ❤

This dude said it to the point,he should be representing the future of this country. One solid dude and he has my vote. Thank you Sir for your words of wisdom to the powers that are uninformed of a serious problem that has plaqued our nation for far too long!

Jellyroll for president yall!!! I welcome bunnie as our 1st lady

When I heard that speech I cried. Thank God Jelly Roll is speaking out about it .

What a great human being!❤

I will never look at the ( Addicts) the same again! God bless this man.

Thank you, Jelly Roll! You speak so well!!

Absolutely brilliant speech…. This is what country’s need honesty and truth from people who actually live on the streets reality for many people and what we see

wow hell of a good speaker

Such an eloquent speaker with a great meesage for the commitee.

Wow! What a man! More like him would be appreciated. One can no longer assume the gov't will do the "right" thing. When a leader invites millions of people invade this country bringing everything under the sun with them, we have got to speak up! Thank you, Jelly Roll. Now I'm going to listen to your music!

Your speech touched my heart to the core I am one of those recovering drug addicts who in my 7 years clean have watched dozens die from overdose. Something has to change we have to take a stand. Kids are younger and younger trying new things and they are dying. I stand with you jellyroll thank you

I lost my sister in February to a fentanyl overdose. She smoked a joint with her friend and it was laced in fentanyl. Left behind three beautiful children. Their father committed suicide four years ago. Two of the best people in the world are no longer here. Keep my family and her babies in your prayers.

I love you Jelly Roll. You should be President. You makee proud. God bless your heart

Thank you for speaking for the addicts an alcoholic who have no voice we are humans an every life is worth saving we all are gods children just different

You clearly have a capacity not expected. Thank you for your testimony. My heart continues to break.

Thank for speaking for many❤

Thank you Jelly Roll for taking your time out of your busy schedule to help others that has these issues, we're truly blessed to have someone like you to stick your head out for others.

Thank you for bringing my daughters struggles to a place that maybe, maybe this demon can start being slain. My beautiful, intelligent, charismatic, kind, loving daughter who struggles every day fighting not to use again. Meth, coke, fentanyl.... They change the brain function creating a craving that not a single person, who hasn't used, can understand. I so appreciate your assistance in trying to fight this battle for her, and every other person who fights addiction, in this arena.

Thank you for speaking on this .

Jelly roll you are awesome bringing this to everyones attention thank you God bless you ❤

Thanks for helping. Lost my twin brother, and girlfriend to this battle. Even going through that, im still struggling and hoping i figure this out. My mom is already going through enough and I fear that if i don't get through this, i could be next in line and putting her through that again, would be horrible. That just shows you the hold and grip this has on people. Smh this epidemic is a serious serious problem all over the world

Congratulations on your purpose Jelly! Jelly - definitely not a "stupid song writer". I love his music because it is gritty and speaks absolute truth to the soul. The addiction problem is not something to toil lightly with. This happens to so many and my prayers are with each and every beautiful human being out there, struggling, seeking help, sitting in the darkness, waiting for the light. Know you are loved, you have value, there is hope and you are never alone. God Speed 😇🙏 Well done Sir!

I am proud to say she is still alive but unfortunately in Dalton Georgia it is unfested with fentanyl and people r dying daily. Thank you for standing strong on getting fentanyl off the streets!

Thank so much for your truth ❤😢

And then he flipped tables!!! Jelly I see your soul in the music you write. There’s nothing louder than an ‘uneducated’ man from the other side of the tracks delivering a speech that commands recognition that America has a problem! I don’t believe an ounce of anything less than the upmost respect was had for you and your message in that room. Keep doing exactly what you’re doing. You’re gonna continue to do big things in this world. So proud of you!!!!

Amen Jeely Roll,Please speak your mind.No body is better than those words you speak ..God Bless Love you

I stumbled upon Jelly Roll cause of Mama Tot. I fell in love with his music. I found this while listening to his music, I lost a dear friend to addiction. This speech brought tears to my eyes. What he stands for, what he is saying, he is a real person, and we need more "celebrities" that are real people. I have all the respect for this man and what he stands for. ❤
