DEA vs. chronic pain patients

Victory! The creator of this petition declared the campaign a success. You can still sign the petition to show support.

Stop the DEA from making choices for chronic pain patients and their doctors, who are being forced to close their doors to patients. Legal prescriptions of opiate drugs are not the problem, and people are suffering because of the DEA's policies. Hurting people in chronic pain isn't the way to get drugs off the streets.

Why is this important?

The DEA is forcing doctors that treat people with chronic pain to stop using opiate pain medicine. These medicines help us live a daily life with the ability to function: bathing, dressing, shopping, walking, and other normal activities.

In their effort to stop illegal drug activities, the DEA is hurting people who need treatment.
