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.

One thing is certain: This is the last 4/20 celebration that cannabis will be on Schedule I.”
