As this time, we are asking that if you are not a Georgia resident, please DO NOT reach out to the Georgia legislature.
We have been told by our lobbying team on the ground, that an "outside of the state" effort could hurt us.

Kratom Warriors,
The Georgia State Legislature will hold its final Study Committee Hearing on the Risks Associated with Kratom on Thursday, December 13, 2018 in Room 450 of the Georgia State Capitol before the Committee issues its final report.
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 do have friends, family, or fellow kratom consumers that you know in Georgia, please reach out to them TODAY to encourage them to attend.
Dave Herman, Chairman of the American Kratom Association (AKA), has requested time to speak at the Hearing – Dave is a native Georgian and lives just outside of Atlanta. But the Committee needs to see a room packed with kratom supporters (AKA will have signs for all kratom advocates to hold up during the Hearing).
There may be time for individual citizens to speak, but even if that is not permitted, your voice will be heard by having a packed room of kratom supporters. Dave Herman will make certain to ask that the kratom supporters be able to stand and be recognized by the Study Committee.
For those attending, this is a formal meeting of the Legislature and you are encouraged to dress appropriately and please keep all communications on a professional and respectful basis with the Committee and its members.
As this time, we are asking that if you are not a Georgia resident, please DO NOT reach out to the Georgia legislature.
We have been told by our lobbying team on the ground, that an "outside of the state" effort could hurt us.
But, and this is very important, if you have family or friends in Georgia, please forward them the following information:
Georgia House Study Committee on Risks Associated with Kratom
- Thursday, December 13, 2018
10:00 am in State Capitol Room 450
Atlanta, Georgia
Let's fight to keep kratom legal in Georgia.
Sincerely,
American Kratom Association
