Freedom. Kratom freed me from years of substance addiction and chronic pain. The same substances that are legal to take all over the country. The same chronic pain caused from working a job to support this country. 

Kratom user since 2012. Zero negative effects whatsoever in that time. Never once. I've never been high from it. Or had withdrawals. Or been miserable if I didn't take some for a few days. But I definitely felt all of those things and much worse in active addiction to legal drugs from my doctor.

Do not criminalize one of America's only hopes for recovery. We are already lost enough. Do not take away our access to natural medicine.
