1,170 peer reviewed scientific articles on Kratom. I'd love to thank the @OGKratomQueen and Dan for creating this priceless tool we can now use to fight this ridiculous Kratom ban! #KeepKratomLegal kratomindex.com

@KratomStory @JeniferPMartin1 Out of those. I've received one single reply. We no longer have a functioning government. Our First Amendment right by greviences of the government has been stripped away. We've turned into an Authoritarian shithole. All of this while in the middle of a war.

@JeniferPMartin1 It’s insane they aren’t listening to the science. 🤷‍♀️

The threat against natural kratom has now reached the federal level. A group of U.S. Senators, led by Senator Ricketts, has formally urged the FDA to move toward scheduling kratom. This effort is built on outdated information, media fear, and a failure to distinguish natural kratom from dangerous synthetic products. And it matters more than most people realize. Because if this goes unchallenged, it can quickly turn into federal regulation, scheduling, or an outright ban. We cannot wait until a bill is filed. If action isn’t taken now, access to natural kratom could be restricted or criminalized across the country. YOUR ACTION PLAN: 1. Send a message
👉 americanadvocacy.org Contact your Members of Congress and Senate offices. Keep it brief and clear:
You oppose any effort to ban or schedule natural kratom. 2. Call Senator Ricketts’ office
📞 (202) 224-4224 Ask them to oppose scheduling kratom and support regulation instead of a ban.

@KratomStory @JeniferPMartin1 I've sent thousands of emails in support of regulation instead of banning and giving my testimony and positive quality of life benefits plain leaf kratom has provided me.

@drmicheleross @dougkalmanphdrd @RobertKennedyJr Kratom also doesn't cause respiratory depression. It also has a built in mechanism that taken too much will make you dizzy, nauseated, and eventually throw up. That defense alone makes it one of the safest plants on planet earth.

Those overdoses were Kratom+, no evidence that they were 7-OH products. I reviewed every autopsy. A later press release by governor Newsom backpedaled and stated they were Kratom overdoses. Also, over 20% of mitragynine in Kratom is converted into 7-OH in the body. For a standard Kratom dose of 2.5 g, that’s 40 mg of mitragynine into 10 mg of 7-OH. 7-OH is not some crazy, dangerous, synthetic compound. All Kratom users have a lot of it in their body.

Why is @RobertKennedyJr ok with approving peptide injections that haven’t gone through clinical trials but wants to make Kratom alkaloid 7-OH, a plant-derived tablet, a Schedule 1 drug? Why are untested injections ok for fitness & beauty influencers but plant-based pain relief is worthy of a felony? wapo.st/47o3EfI

@drmicheleross @RobertKennedyJr I've sent thousands of emails to legislation and only received one single reply. We are completely ignored and no longer have protections from the First Amendment as they are ignoring our ability to grievance the government.

@drmicheleross @RobertKennedyJr Why is Plain Leaf kratom under full attack in almost every state and with bans incoming. Yet RFK Jr is completely silent. We no longer have a functioning government who is listening to the welfare of their constituencies.

@kaake_rn @AmerMommaBear @misteaz79 Tramadol can work for pain to some extent. However it's one of the most dangerous drugs due to it's insane amount of interactions with other medications. The SNRI/SSRI effects and it drastically lowering the seizure threshold make it an absolutely scary choice.

@TheCigarStream @AmerMommaBear @misteaz79 It's the same with Tramadol! But I have heard some people say that it helps them. I don't know if it's genetic or different types of pain or what! 🤷‍♀️

I'm so sorry Connecticut. We advocated our asses off but they didn't care. At the 11th hour, Kratom was snuck into a hemp bill. Shame on you Connecticut!

@AmericanFWoman Yet, kratom which doesn't cause respiratory depression or death is the problem. SMDH. Once they ban it this stuff will be everywhere. Gas stations, schools, smoke shops. The fallout will be devastating.

They’re really trying to convince the public that kratom is the problem… Not the opioids. Not the system that failed people. Not the policies that left patients suffering. Nope… the PLANT is the issue 🙃 Millions of adults are using kratom responsibly every day. #kratom #tuesdaymood

@Kpascuch These people are no longer working for the American people. They are only working for themselves and put Israel and their bank account before the country they swore to serve.

@TheCigarStream Oh yeah. Take a look at how much he was paid by the Israeli Lobby. All 8 of the Senators involved made millions to try and get a federal ban. This guy from CT is why it's now a criminal offense in CT. Greed ridden SHILLS! #KeepKratomLegal

The TRUTH about the potential Kratom ban in Tennessee. Wow, this kid died from a whole lot of things but it certainly had NOTHING to do with Kratom. Maybe it was the DEADLY amount of Benadryl or his alcoholism? Karen's testimony changed pretty drastically. youtu.be/uP0oKK_ZixQ?si…

@AmerMommaBear @misteaz79 Plus if they are calling Suboxone effective for pain relief they are sadly mistaken. Tylenol provides more relief.

@AmerMommaBear @misteaz79 Suboxone has the worst withdrawals out of almost any substance in existence. A straight month of hellish nightmare like panic. The cure for that nightmare withdrawal? Kratom.

@drdaven1 @OGKratomQueen Except it's literally impossible to overdose to the point of dying from kratom. It doesn't cause respiratory depression. These people dying always have a shit load of drugs that actually will kill you in their system.

@OGKratomQueen The convincing will come easy, because the majority of the public has no idea what Kratom even is. It takes one parent to claim their child died from Kratom to sway many minds to believe it was the "drug" that caused the death and not the stupidity of the child to take too much.

@LeafWithTaylor @OGKratomQueen @Kratomlife420 Exactly, banning a plant that doesn't cause respiratory depression unlike these hardcore opiates like fentanyl or the article you linked. Overdoses will spike by magnitudes overnight.

@OGKratomQueen @Kratomlife420 Ban the plant people use to stay off harder drugs, and don’t be surprised what happens next. tennesseelookout.com/2026/03/02/new…

@CrazyFenaker @BeingJWood He will declare an emergency and cancel the elections. Guaranteed.

How the hell does Trump have 40% approval? What’s it going to take people?

@BenSobellioni @GiaG25 @BeingJWood She's either a complete idiot, or a bot.

@GiaG25 @BeingJWood Always a meaningful comment from the people with a room temp IQ

@misteaz79 The science and my 20 year daily usage proves it's completely harmless.

@misteaz79 Kratom is a miracle plant and is actually safer then Caffiene, Tylenol, and Nicotine. Hell there's absolutely no way to die from it because it DOESN'T cause respiratory depression. Who is funding this coordinated attack all of a sudden?

We, the undersigned, call on Congress and federal regulators to immediately remove cannabis seeds and cannabis genetics from the federal hemp restrictions scheduled to take effect on November 12, 2026. Sign and help save the seed! #cannabis change.org/p/remove-canna…
