This week will be one of the busiest weeks we’ve seen in our fight to protect safe consumer access to kratm. We've just seen notices of a barrage of meetings across the country, local councils, committees, and state boards are holding hearings on proposed bans — and we urgently need advocates like you to speak out..
Here’s exactly where we have kratm related bans or discussions coming up next week. Full list of agenda items and links at the bottom of the email:
City of Lake St. Louis, MO, Board of Alderman .Oct 6, 6:00PM
Laguna Niguel, California City Council Oct 6, 7PM
Billerica, MA, Board of Health Oct 6, 7:00PM
Diamondhead, MS, City CouncilOct 7, 6:00PM
Marlborough, MA Board of Health Oct 7, 6:30PM
City of Rockhill, MO, Board of Alderman Agenda, Oct 7, 7:00PMI
Fountain Valley, CA City Council Oct 7, 6:00PM
Village of Lincolnwood, IL Committee of the Whole Oct 9, 6:00PM
Amherst, MA Board of Health Oct 9, 5:00PM
Each of these meetings represents a serious threat to kratm consumers. Opponents are showing up and telling only one side of the story. If we don’t counter with facts, these bans could spread.
