Mississippi Governor signs KCPA; Miss. now the 15th State with Kratom Consumer Protection Act. This is a huge win considering how often Mississippi has come to criminalizing kratom in the past decade. Thank you to all kratom advocates who helped and the Botanics for Better Health and Wellness for their relentless work. This bill isn't perfect, especially the excise tax imposed, but the AKA is committed to working in Mississippi to improve the bill in coming years, and hopes neighboring states like Louisiana and Alabama will take notice.
