MEETING IN DC WITH MEMBERS OF CONGRESS PROMISING
On April 20 (4:20) we met with Senator Chuck Schumer, Cory Blumenauer, Representative Eleanor Holmes Norton, Rep Barbara Lee (on Zoom video), Senator Jeff Merkley, Senator Jackey Rosen, Reps David Joyce, Senator John Hickenlopper, Rep Brian Mast, Rep Nancy Mace and many others. There is hope for the HOPE Amendment to expunge cannabis convictions. Now that 68% of Americans support legalization one would think Washington would wake up. Progress is "Glacial" to say the least. I was impressed with Diane Goldstein, retired LA police sergeant from LEAP which advocates for legalization. Oh and Jeremiah Morteller from Ameticans for Prosperity. Those two made the most sense. There are more Bills proposed but what we need is TO REMOVE CANNABIS FROM THE LIST OF CONTROLLED SUBSTANCES -- NOT RESCHEDULE IT! "DESCHEDULE IT" THE DISPENSARIES are paying BIG BUCKS TO (MEMBERS OF CONGRESS) TO RESCHEDULE CANNABIS. NO! The Clean Slate Act, MORE ACT, CAOA. HEY, COLORADO RACKED IN 3.8 BIL
