The House of Representatives passed a bill to decriminalize cannabis! That’s all I saw up and down my timeline for a few days after the house passed the MORE Act. Also known as Marijuana Opportunity Reinvestment Expungement ACT, the bill would remove cannabis from the Controlled Substances Act, decriminalizing cannabis on a federal level. This would be the first first time congress has ever voted on such a thing.
While many cheered it on as a move in the right direction, others panned as more symbolic than anything else.
Today, we have Dasheeda Dawson on with us to discuss the MORE Act. For those who don’t know, Dasheeda is an author, activist and out-spoken defender of the plant and those that use it. I knew that she would have a great take on the More Act so I tapped her to discuss with our audience.
