Different names, same substance – Kratom. Ban the plant.

THE PLANT IS THE PROBLEM

Kratom leaf naturally contains the same alkaloids found in extracts, shots, and “7‑OH” products. There is no “safe” natural version – only different concentrations. Any bill that leaves natural leaf legal is a loophole, not a ban. See the truth about how kratom products are all equally dangerous.

One Standard. Not Two.

Kratom advocates demand autopsies, toxicology reports, and medical records from grieving families. They dissect every death certificate. They demand proof of harm.
Then let's apply the same standard to claims of benefit.

If kratom “saved your life” or “treated your pain” — show your medical records to your legislators. Show the diagnosis. Show the physician notes. Show the documented improvement.
We are not collecting records. This is a campaign to demand equal evidence. Send your medical records directly to your state lawmakers.

URGENT: ETHANOL DETECTED IN RETAIL KRATOM SHOTS

Independent lab tests have identified ethanol in multiple kratom extract products – some at levels far exceeding accepted limits. In Kansas, similar products were treated as alcoholic beverages after testing.

Are these products being sold in your state without alcohol oversight?

INDUSTRY SPIN & DECEPTION

  • American Kratom Association lobbying
  • Jack Henningfield & OxyContin parallels
  • KCPA: market protection, not public health
  • Same tactics as Big Tobacco

The kratom industry uses sophisticated messaging to block regulation. They push "consumer protection" bills that actually protect their profits.

Learn how they mislead lawmakers and the media — and how you can expose the truth.
