Kratom Warriors,
The Georgia Legislature has finally agreed to hear from real kratom consumers!
The House Study Committee on the Risks Associated with Kratom will hold its final hearing on Friday, Dec. 28th at 11 am in Room 606 CLOB (Coverdell Legislative Office Bldg.). This will be the last chance for kratom supporters in Georgia to tell their personal stories on why kratom should remain legal.
- If you live in Georgia, we hope you do everything you can to arrange your schedule to attend.
- If you don't live in Georgia, but have friends, family, or fellow kratom consumers that you know in Georgia, please reach out to them TODAY to encourage them to attend.
YOU DO NOT HAVE TO SIGN UP IN ADVANCE – YOU CAN SIGN IN AT THE DOOR TO SPEAK.
We need to make sure we fill the room with kratom supporters.
The AKA will be hosting a "Pre-Hearing Rally" at 10:15 am in Room 506 CLOB. This will be an opportunity for kratom advocates who plan on attending the hearing to get the latest updates from Dave Herman, Chairman of the American Kratom Association, and Mac Haddow, AKA's Senior Fellow on Public Policy.
From the Pre-Hearing Rally, we will all walk up one floor to the actual hearing in Room 606 CLOB.
If you are planning on attending the Public Hearing and the Pre-Hearing Rally, please CLICK HERE and fill out the short registration form. This will give us an idea of the strategy we need to use at the Hearing.
We will have 2 hours to hear from kratom supporters, so let's take advantage of this important opportunity.
For those who will be attending, this is a formal meeting of the Legislature so all are encouraged to dress appropriately, and please keep your statements on a professional and respectful basis with the Committee and its staff.
If you have family or friends in Georgia, please forward them the following information:
