Great news this morning as the Virginia Board of Pharmacy has rejected the petition to Schedule (criminalize) kratom. Thank you to the thousands who commented! Proper consumer protection matters to keep kratom safe, but criminalization and overregulation are wrong.
Latest in other states:
– California held a Senate Hearing about their kratom regulation bill yesterday. The AKA legislative team attended and Senior Fellow Mac Haddow testified against the bill. Watch the video below to see how this would harm Californians and set a terrible precedent.
– North Carolina and New Jersey have active threats for kratom Scheduling and banning. The AKA team is working hard to stop the bans so please stay connected for the next steps.
