Summary: The commenter urges the DEA to deny Benuvia Operations, LLC.'s application to manufacture mescaline. They argue that commercial manufacturing poses a threat to human health, violates the American Indian Freedom of Religion Act, and endangers the conservation of the Peyote plant.
I urge the DEA to deny Benuvia Operations, LLC.'s application to manufacture mescaline. Expanding commercial mescaline manufacturing through synthetic and pharmaceutical companies not only raises concerns about the future of Peyote, but it poses as a direct human health threat and is a violate of the American Indian Freedom of Religion Act.
I encourage the DEA to prioritize the protection of endangered Peyote, respect for the conservation of this unique living relative over expanding pharmaceutical production.
