🚨 Georgia Hearing 3/5

Dear Kratom Advocate,

We need your help in Georgia.

A committee hearing has now been scheduled for Thursday, March 5th on HB 968, a bill that would schedule kratom and make it illegal in Georgia. This proposal threatens to criminalize responsible consumers who rely on natural kratom leaf.

The American Kratom Association is urging all area advocates to take action immediately.

If you are able, please attend the hearing in person and respectfully oppose HB 968. Legislators need to hear directly from the people whose lives are positively impacted by kratom.

Judiciary Non-Civil

401K STATE CAPITOL, Atlanta

Even if you cannot attend the hearing, you can still make your voice heard.

👉 Take action here:
Go to protectkratom.org/georgia and use the advocacy form to contact the committee members.

When you write to legislators, please:

Oppose HB 968 as currently written

Share your personal story about how kratom has helped you or someone you care about

Ask lawmakers to preserve access to natural kratom leaf products

Encourage targeted regulation that bans dangerous synthetics and 7-OH products instead of criminalizing responsible consumers

Lawmakers need to understand that natural kratom leaf is not the problem. The real issue is the emergence of synthetic and highly concentrated products like 7-OH, which should be addressed through smart regulation — not by banning a plant that many Georgians responsibly use.

Your voice can make the difference.

Please submit your message today and share your story, and if you are able, consider attending the hearing on Thursday to stand up for kratom consumers across Georgia.
