Subject: Please do not ban plain leaf kratom
Dear Council Members,
I am a disabled Army veteran and I am asking you to please vote no on banning plain leaf
kratom. This plant helps me function and maintain my quality of life. It is a safe and
natural option for me.
I frequently travel to the LA and Orange County area. Plain leaf kratom allows me to visit
my family and spend money in your region without fear of becoming a criminal simply for
having a natural product that helps me live a normal life. A ban like this would harm
people like me who use plain leaf responsibly.
Please do not punish responsible adults. Plain leaf kratom is not the problem.
Prohibition will not protect anyone. Regulation is the right answer.
I have signed up to speak tonight. I am a disabled Armyveteran and I struggle with
exhaustion, especially late at night. There will also be other disabled kratom consumers
on this Zoom call. Because of this, I respectfully request that you consider calling this
item earlier in the agenda as a reasonable ADA accommodation, so that myself and
others who are disabled are able to participate.
Thank you for your time, attention, and consideration.
Respectfully,
Marcelle Morfin
Woodland, California
