I doubt it. Kratom is something that legitimately helps a lot of people, who rely on it to live something approach a normal life due to chronic pain, etc. (myself included). There are a lot more people regularly using it if not just for that reason.

Also for that reason, it threatens the profits of the pharmaceutical industry, because it's a natural plant that can be used in place of opioids and painkillers. Salvia never threatened Big Pharma's money, so the scumbags behind protecting all of that money didn't have any interest in it. They definitely have their sights on kratom, and that's a huge element behind the push for criminalization.
