🚨🚨🚨We keep seeing hearings and proposed restrictions pop up in different States with little time to organize. I feel we need to build a strong advocacy network BEFORE the next hearing, regardless of the State. I know we have some badass fighters out there, so please let me know so I can add you to this list! If you are willing to join us in fighting this war against plain leaf kratom, please: COMMENT YOUR STATE + WHAT YOU CAN DO: CALL — Make Calls during public hearings ATTEND — Show up in person EMAIL — Contact officials PHONE — Call officials before hearings/votes WRITE — Submit public comments/testimony SHARE — Spread urgent action alerts Also, Creative Tasks: Able to create flyers with info on bans and/or upcoming hearings Example: 🌿 MI — CALL / EMAIL / WRITE /Attend in Person That's it. The goal is simple: when a hearing is announced, we already know how many people are prepared to participate through the official process. I'm posting this because there are people willing to help but lost in how to do so. We have a lot more people than the opposition. Now we just gotta organize and use those numbers to be even more effective! Thank you for fighting everyone! #KratomBan #MIKratomBan #KeepKratomLegal #Kratom

Kratom isn't a narcotic either. It's from the coffee family, which I'd assume makes it an antioxidant, too.

If the two boys died from alcohol poisoning in Ole Miss, would this ridiculous media blitz be happening? Would millions of people come together to end the alcohol industry? RIP to them both. Tragic #KratomSavesLives

Suboxone is SO MUCH MORE addictive than Fentanyl. Its a pure nightmare for WEEKS to get off of. You can see the money trail when these people mislead moms on Kratom. I need Kratom for pain relief, because MOMS fucked up prescription pain relief TOO. Kratom is all we got now.

spread the math if mitragynine is 40x less potent than morphine then that means kratom itself is 0.0004x as potent as morphine by weight. 12.5G kratom is as strong as 5mg morphine we have opioids on the streets where you can take 5mg to get the effect of 50 grams of morphine.

While chronic pain patients are being force-tapered, abandoned, and left begging for adequate pain treatment, the AMA is asking whether iced coffee belongs in the exam room. This isn’t cute. It’s insulting. The optics are terrible. You have influence over the culture and policies that shape how patients are treated, and this is what you choose to spotlight? Patients are suffering. Some are desperate. Some are turning to dangerous alternatives because they cannot get relief. Some are dying by suicide because they cannot take another day of uncontrolled pain. Try reading the country before you make another asinine post. 😡🙄

While chronic pain patients are fighting just to be heard, believed, and adequately treated, the American Medical Association @AmerMedicalAssn wants to know whether iced coffee belongs in the exam room. This is where we are. Patients are rationing medications, losing access to doctors, being undertreated for pain, and searching for anything that might give them a few hours of relief. But sure. Let’s talk about iced coffee. The disconnect between organized medicine and the patients living with chronic pain could not be more obvious. 🙄😡
Let's hear it: 🥤Do iced coffees belong in the exam room?

Yep! Also cigarettes. It’s crazy isn’t it? Government needs to stop telling us, we the people, free citizens what to put into & do with our bodies! Every time a law is passed we lose rights. Remember that! #MybodyMychoice #YourbodyYourchoice

If all of the people who use unregulated drugs complained enough the drug supply would be regulated. It's the people they don't mention that are using the drugs - the accountant, maid, that lawyer, that cop over there. Don't be ashamed. You don't deserve to die from poisoning.

Switch out the word "nicotine" with kratom..and you got the anti-kratom folk in this pic as millions of us continue to take daily doses of kratom for our well-being despite the parroting media blitz of the most irrational, idiotic and sensationalistic stories I've ever seen in 12 yrs of advocating for kratom. #KeepKratomLegal #KratomBan #MIKratomBan
I guess we're immoral! 😄

She should be investigated. Dr drew too. These people are getting paid to lie about rx opioid pain meds and causing widespread needless suffering and torture.

They have been shameless liars and rabid anti-pain management/anti-pain medication for years/decades and they continue this lying, shameless behavior. No one dies from a moderate dose of kratom, just as no one dies from rx opioid pain meds taken as directed. And fentanyl is perfectly safe in a hospital/anaesthetic situation, its only dangerous when Prohibition/drug war sends pain patients to the streets and cartel products.
Unbelievable. How can you even have kratom on the screen? The propaganda is so bad. But also look what prohibition is causing. You’re telling me they are that stupid?

Agreed. Comparing kratom to “Vicodin in chocolate bars” isn’t education it’s sensationalism designed to frighten people. A doctor with a national platform should distinguish traditional natural leaf from concentrated or adulterated products and wait for toxicology results before making reckless comparisons. Dr. Drew sacrificed accuracy for a sound bite, and people are justified in refusing to support him over it.

There is a difference between taking public safety seriously and exploiting a tragedy before the facts are known.... Shame on every news outlet or politician involved with using this to their advantage especially at this point when almost no concrete evidence is known! It's truly disgusting what lengths people will go through.

Keep speaking out on behalf of #kratom in these comment sections, guys. It is noticeable how much support kratom leaf has and it helps signal to others how actually out of touch these media outlets are.

"we control the narrative" They did it to opioids and they're doing it to Kratom! They'll do it to anything! Spread the word because knowledge and light is our cure! #PainCareCrisis #MedTwitter
If you’re wondering why the media’s running with the anti-Kratom psyop, below you’ll see the biggest trial lawyer in the USA explain how THEY control the narrative once they have a $ interest in litigation. He runs Mass Torts Made Perfect. Kratom was added to the list of the MT special interest groups where they share info & experts in 2023……

Does that include putting undertreated pain patients’ needs, over the corporate interests of billion $ trial lawyers, who continue to push a false narrative blaming rx meds? Here’s super-lawyer Mike Papantonio, admitting they create the narrative, they call the reporters, and that they KEEP IT GOING. CBS has been one of their biggest battering rams.

This right here! Natural Kratom is a leaf from a tree. 🌿 Millions of us use it without any negative side effects. For me personally, it's given me my life back from debilitating chronic pain.
Nobody is dying from pure leaf kratom. This manufactured war on kratom is about getting millions of kratom consumers on the highly addictive opioid, Suboxone, securing opioid settlement funds, and lawsuits against kratom companies It’s pure propaganda Don’t fall for the nonsense again
