👏👏 to @KevinSabet for hitting the nail: "For years, the government has failed to act. That failure has cost lives, and now is the time for a federal ban on kratom."

Today, I'm on Capitol Hill co-hosting a Congressional Briefing on Drug Policy with @GoodDrugPolicy. I'm doing my part to change the direction of our National Drug strategy from permissive harm reduction to treatment, recovery and accountability. @samhsagov @DrugCzar47 @ONDCP

We had a great drug policy roundtable today on Capitol Hill with @j0rdandavids0n and @Twolfrecovery!

Our CEO @KevinSabet points out the serious flaws and real dangers of the Trump psychedelics EO in the @washingtonpost https://t.co/5Jsxv8Flcw

Joe Rogan should not be making drug policy.

Of course we should research all of these drugs and put them through trials.

But we shouldn’t put the cart before the horse and send the message that we already have answers when we still have questions.

[Luke Niforatos @LukeNiforatos]

America is about to learn why we established the Food and Drug Administration and a world-renowned process for medication research nearly a century ago. It was to save lives, not to treat Americans like lab rats.

Statement on Ibogaine here - of course we should do research, but an EO puts the cart before the horse. ⬇️⬇️⬇️

FDPS condemns in the strongest possible terms President Trump's executive orderon ibogaine and other dangerous psychedelics.

“This order elevates politics and hype over sound science,” said FDPS CEO @KevinSabet

“The best available evidence indicates that supervised consumption sites do little to nothing to reduce drug overdose deaths in their surrounding communities.”

.@KevinSabet and @CharlesFLehman's newest report, Supervised Consumption Sites: Ineffective and Illegal, is out now. The piece covers the disastrous impact of these sites on public health and the illegality of their operation. 🧵

[Foundation for Drug Policy Solutions @GoodDrugPolicy]

From Canada to New York, harm reduction has been represented as a ‘silver bullet’ fix for the drug crisis, but the overwhelming evidence has shown these polices to be abject failures. You don’t need to just take our word for it:

Great article by @RepBlakeMoore, outlining the dangers of prediction markets, which represent a new addiction-for-profit industry.

We are proud to endorse Rep. Moore's bill, the ECEA, which would crack down on this industry and protect the public.
