One of our VSHP members has submitted a petition to the BOP to reclassify Kratom as a Schedule I substance. Public comments can be made here: https://townhall.virginia.gov/L/Comments.cfm?petitionid=409 and closes on 6/5/24 at midnight.
Attached are our comments that we submitted to the BOP as well as the original petition itself.
We are asking you to comment via the link above to the BOP in support of the petition to reclassify kratom as a schedule I substance. The Kratom lobby has rallied against this so we are trying to ensure our voices as health care professionals are not drowned out.
