My guy @tahdiddy and I represented for Minority Cannabis Business Association (MCBA) as we were awarded the #TheEmJays for Trade Association of The Year last night! Thank you to our members and everyone who voted!! #MJBizCon

Schedule 3 would mean that state adult use AND medical cannabis programs would remain completely illegal under federal law. These governors should be calling for and end to federal criminalization. 📢The problem isn’t the schedule— it’s the Controlled Substances Act .

WOW: In a major reversal, the Ohio Senate General Government Committee approved a bill that maintains marijuana home grow rights, adds expungements and allows adults to purchase cannabis from existing medical dispensaries immediately. marijuanamoment.net/ohio-senate-co…

WHIPLASH: In stunning reversal, Ohio GOP Senate committee unanimously passes amended cannabis bill that actually *expands* voter-approved legalization law. -Keeps home grow -Allows imminent sales from medical dispensaries -ADDS automatic expungements!! marijuanamoment.net/ohio-senate-co…

When I was just a stoner working the Taco Bell drive thru and delivering newspapers while being the local 🌲 plug 🔌 , I would have never imagined that I would help National Cannabis Industry Association to its largest one year growth in its history…

…or help Minority Cannabis Business Association (MCBA) win Trade Association of the Year, but as I reflect on 12 years of advocacy, I’m proud to have played a small role in this big thing we call the #cannabis movement.

While we support #SAFEBanking & have worked hard to improve the bill for our members and our communities, we appreciate Senator Reverend Raphael Warnock for continuing to make sure equity is part of the conversation. Those disproportionately harmed should be able to disproportionately benefit.

I sure hope someone tells President Donald J. Trump that there will still be people getting locked up for #cannabis under his administration’s policy.

.President Donald J. Trump - there is still time to make good on your campaign promise. Call on Congress to deschedule #cannabis and take other administrative actions that we’ve laid out at DecriminalizeMarijuana.com

Mahalo to Kaliko Castille for his years of service to MCBA! 🫡 Going out on top after winning Trade Association of the Year at #MJBizCon and the Diversity and Inclusion Champion Award from Minorities4MedicalMJ! ✊🏾

Thank you to Elizabeth Warren for her work raising this important issue. #DecriminalizeMarijuana

Chelsea Higgs Wise of Marijuana Justice argues in a new Marijuana Moment op-ed that Virginia lawmakers shouldn't give existing medical cannabis biz a head start on adult-use sales before new biz run by people from communities harmed by criminalization. marijuanamoment.net/dont-let-out-o…

Giving early access to medical operators cements the inequities that often come with limited license medical marketplaces like VA. Take a look at Minority Cannabis Business Association (MCBA)’s 2022 National Cannabis Equity Report where we point out this can give MSO’s a significant head start over equity

Today would be a good day for Joe Biden to call on Congress to fully de-schedule #cannabis and make good on his promise to decriminalize #marijuana so that no human gets locked in a cage for a plant.

See you in D.C. this April for this Unity Day of Action being led by our friends Last Prisoner Project! It’s time to speak with one collective voice that Congress must de-schedule and stop the practice of putting people in cages for possessing a plant. Save the date! 4/18/24.

Come to D.C. this April and tell the rest of Elizabeth Warren’s colleagues in Congress to end federal #cannabis prohibition.
