On 12/10, #Illinois State Rep. Sonya Marie Harper & Chicago Alderman Stephanie Coleman held a Cannabis Town Hall Meeting to educate about starting a #cannabisbusiness. #ILDCEO and Governor JB Pritzker's Office were present to answer any questions. #cannabisnews

The irresponsibility of Chicago City Council debate is jaw dropping. We spent years crafting legislation that puts social equity at the core of the recreational cannabis market. Those who say otherwise are patently wrong and are insulting to me and my colleagues.

Members of the #Illinois Legislative Black Caucus will speak about the importance of protecting our most vulnerable communities during the budget making process as we deliver our State of Black Illinois address today following Governor Pritzker's budget address.
