I am not in support of this ban. This ban could cause more harm than good
 
  • This ban could cause more harm than good. Regulations are needed but not outright bans. As a chronic pain patient who can not access nor use prescription pain medication, kratom has been a life saver. It is what allows me to be productive and be with my family. My pain levels are reduced, and I'm therefore happier. There is a lot of misinformation and propaganda regarding this TEA! It is directly related to coffee. Would we ban coffee? No, we wouldn't. Alcohol and tobacco are far more dangerous! Please do your due diligence and research this plant first. Not thru Google as it is full of misinformation and extremely biased. You want regulation, not a ban! Please don't take this from your citizens who so desperately need this. You would be altering peoples lives and not for the better. Thank you for your time.
