420 Somewhere with CEO of A Green Legacy Brittany Parker

In this episode of 420 Somewhere, guest Brittany Parker joins us as we examine cannabis in the media.  She is the founder and CEO of A Green Legacy – a cannabis marketing, PR, and sales strategy consultancy specializing in content development, media, landing public speaking engagements, lead generation, and organic marketing engagement.Parker strategically pivoted into the cannabis industry 4 years ago through earlier careers in elementary education and later, Fortune 100 tech marketing. Her final year as a burned-out elementary teacher – changed her from an aspiring superintendent to an aspiring cannabis CEO. Black and brown communities continue to be disproportionately targeted by cannabis prohibition. Parker envisions a cannabis industry where Black and brown people have a fair opportunity to build wealth and economic power through the same avenue used to villainize, incarcerate, and dismantle these communities for decades. In addition to serving her clients and enjoying family time with her partner and 5-year-old, Parker enjoys supporting underrepresented cannabis entrepreneurs and professionals through her community events – covering topics like, how to find business funding, pivoting into the cannabis industry, and securing media coverage.  Parker is a freelance writer and certified medical marijuana consultant based in Washington State. She loves any opportunity to take in the Pacific North West outdoors with a side of Gelato 33.

These States Legalized Cannabis in the 2022 Election

What States Legalized Cannabis in the 2022 Election ?The midterm elections this year was a pivotal moment for #cannabis.  More and more states are jumping into the #AdultUse market and we are seeing just how much progress has been made since the nacency of decriminalization.  There are still countless hurdles to jump on the #federal side of the fence but with each passing election cycle, we get closer and closer to ending the groundless prohibition of a significantly benevolent and innoxious plant. The latest states to join us on the planet of common sense are Maryland and Missouri.  While these states are preparing for the transition, they both project very different paths of progression.  Join us as we discuss what we know so far about the laws for those states and see how the nation is shaping up after the results reach their final tally.  As Republicans and Democrats both differ on their approach to the green wave sweeping the nation, how are their numbers in the House and Senate going to impact what many advocates and activists have been working decades to accomplish in the coming years?Tune into Cannabis Legalization News with host Tom Howard and Miggy420 where we discuss these stories and more. 🌱 We can help with your cannabis business.

Congressional Bill to form a Federal Marijuana Commission | Cannabis News November 2022

Congressional Bill to form a Federal Marijuana Commission | Cannabis News November 2022This week, senator John Hickenlooper announced his plans to introduce a bill before #congress to form a federal marijuana commission to oversee #cannabis reform measures on the federal level. This comes as good news to those who have been pushing for more sensible cannabis policy at the national level.The proposed commission would be tasked with studying how best to regulate cannabis, taking into account the different approaches that states have taken so far. It would also be responsible for making recommendations to Congress on how to deal with issues such as taxation, licensing, and enforcement.This is a welcome development, as it shows that there is growing interest in finding a workable solution to the conflict between state and federal laws on cannabis. With the formation of this commission, we may finally see some progress on this issue.Also in the headlines, it was recently announced that Sean “Diddy” Combs is partnering with Casa Verde Capital, a cannabis-focused investment firm, to launch the largest black owned cannabis company in the world. This is huge news in the cannabis industry, as black-owned businesses are still relatively rare.#Diddy plans to purchase assets in Illinois, New York, and Massachusetts – three states that have legalized recreational cannabis. This will give the company a strong foothold in the Northeast US market.The company will focus on creating quality products and brands that appeal to a wide range of consumers. This is a smart move, as the legal cannabis industry is still in its early stages and there is a lot of room for growth.Tune into Cannabis Legalization News with host Tom Howard and Miggy420 where we discuss these stories and more.  🌱 We can help with your cannabis business.

Feds Deny Citizenship over Cannabis Use | Cannabis Legalization News | Dr. Beau Kilmer Rand

video -> https://youtu.be/s7jMSZcIQw0Past #cannabis use is credited as the reason the #immigration authorities denied a woman’s request for #citizenship this week.  Cannabis remains federally classified as a schedule I drug and purportedly has no medicinal benefits.  But according to Judge Nina Y. Wang, this is a demonstration of having poor “moral character” and was grounds enough to deny the Swiss citizen her naturalized American citizenship.  One’s moral character is called into question when applying for citizenship to America.  The woman’s honesty was not called into question however as she admitted to authorities that she may have used cannabis ten times when she was in her teens.  And while a flawed morality argument may have prevented her from being granted an American citizenship, Snoop Dog’s professional joint roller has recently been interviewed and sheds some light on how much smoke this cannabis superstar actually goes through.  This fascinating insight into the life of one of the most recognized names in America will leave you stunned.  But don’t worry, we have more of the week’s top stories plus a Halloween inspired Name That Strain. We also welcome guest speaker Dr. Beau Kilmer on the show today.  Dr. Kilmer is the co-director of nonprofit, nonpartisan RAND Drug Policy Research Center. His research on cannabis policy has appeared in top journals like the New England Journal of Medicine and JAMA Psychiatry, and his commentaries on this topic have been published by CNN, Los Angeles Times, NBC, New York Times, USA Today, Wall Street Journal, and other outlets. His co-authored book on cannabis legalization was published by Oxford University Press. He grew up in Northern Michigan, is a diehard Golden State Warriors fan, and is still trying to figure out how to raise his Australian Shepard.Tune into Cannabis Legalization News with host Tom Howard and Miggy420 where we discuss these stories and more.  🌱 We can help with your cannabis business.
