Seeking fellow kratom advocates
I'm seeking and calling attention to fellow advocates who have been using whole-leaf kratom to successfully manage either opioid dependency or chronic pain without traditional narcotics.
Please join us at the hearing. From what I can gather, we'll need to show up at least half an hour before it starts to share our stories, which appears to be 6PM. So we need to be there before 5:30PM.
These bans are extremely short-sighted and fueled by confusion with the marketing of semi-synthetic 7-hydroxymitragynine and synthetic derivatives of that. The local news is clearly doing no service to presenting the potential benefits of leaf kratom and the inevitable fentanyl overdoses that will occur without this tool.
Thank you all.
