  Any chance someone will speak on behalf of the millions of chronic pain patients who are cruelly and unfairly having their medications ripped from them. Our voice is being silenced. We need help

  Stop marketing a moral panic. Make LEGAL medication easy to access. Allow ALL doctors to prescribe LEGAL medication by protecting them instead of threatening them. Stop demonizing a vital drug class. The addiction rate has NOT increased. OVERDOSES have - because of YOU (govt).
