Last year, then-eleven-year-old Colorado resident and medical marijuana patient Alexis Bortell joined other plaintiffs in a lawsuit against pot-hating Attorney General Jeff Sessions over federal scheduling of cannabis.

And even though Day and the feds have very different views about kratom, some of the concerns voiced by the CDC echo ones she shared with us.
