Thousands Mobilize Against DEA’s Proposed 7-OH and SR-17018 Bans as July 31 Deadline Nears
Public opposition to the Drug Enforcement Administration’s (DEA) proposed ban on 7-hydroxymitragynine (7-OH), a naturally occurring metabolite of the kratom plant, has already surpassed the historic 2016 campaign that stopped the agency’s attempt to ban kratom.
Students for Sensible Drug Policy (SSDP) has created easy-to-use advocacy tools to help the public submit comments to the federal register opposing the criminalization of 7-OH and ask Congress to stop the emergency scheduling of SR-17018 ahead of the July 31 deadline.
