Protect Kids & Consumers in Tennessee!

Tennessee lawmakers are considering legislation that could push 7-hydroxymitragynine (7-OH) into an unregulated underground market.

A 7-OH ban won’t protect kids and it won’t help fight opioid addiction, data shows it makes it worse!

Your voice matters right now. Legislators need to hear directly from you that consumer protection means regulation, not prohibition.

Dear [Lawmaker],

I am writing to urge you Vote NO on HB 1649!

A ban will not protect consumers, but send them searching for other less-safe, unregulated alternatives underground.

A ban will make it harder and more dangerous for Tennessee consumers to access 7OH, a life-saving healthy alternative to opioids.

When products move underground, consumers lose protections, bad actors thrive, and risks increase, especially for young people.

There is a clear, responsible alternative: regulation.

Sensible consumer-protection policies can:

- Establish and enforce age-gating
- Require accurate labeling and clear disclosures
- Set manufacturing, purity, and testing standards
- Target bad actors while preserving accountability and oversight
- Prevent unsafe black-market sales rather than unintentionally encouraging them

Tennessee has an opportunity to lead with science-based, consumer-focused policy that prioritizes safety, transparency, and enforcement, rather than repeating prohibition-based approaches that have fueled illicit markets and worsened public-health outcomes in the past.

We deserve thoughtful policy that protects families, empowers regulators, and keeps products out of the shadows. Stop the 7OH Ban!

Thank you for your time and service.

Sincerely,
______
