Maine – Committee on Criminal Justice and Public Safety

Senator Scott Cryway and the Committee on Criminal Justice and Public Safety, Please remove mitragynine from the language defining schedule W drugs and remove mitragynine from the list of schedule W drugs in Maine. This is an active ingredient found in an botanical tree found in South east Asia that has been used safely for centuries as a tea. This does not belong on the list of dangerous drugs which should be classified as schedule W in Maine.
