Rep Earl Blumenauer (D-OR), chair of the Congressional Cannabis Caucus, held a briefing today, outlining policy progress over his 50 years of advocacy and energizing his caucus to embrace cannabis reform as a broader political strategy for November.
Blumenauer told media that tomorrow will be the last 4/20 celebration with cannabis classified as a schedule 1 narcotic. “The public is not waiting anymore. They have led the charge in state after state and are responsible for much of the remarkable progress,” he said. “This is the year that I think we can break the federal logjam. One thing is certain: This is the last 4/20 celebration that cannabis will be on Schedule I.”
