Marijuana industry sales nationwide are expected to reach $23 billion by 2022, but the safety of thousands of businesses, their employees and law enforcement officers is at risk due to our current cash-only system. Ed’s working across the aisle to fix this, and he needs your help.

Folks —

At a time when Congress and many Americans are rigidly divided along party lines, my bill to provide certainty for financial institutions serving legal and legitimate marijuana businesses has gained tremendous bipartisan support — and now, it’s time for Congress to vote on it.

Add your name to support my bill to provide a safe banking solution for marijuana businesses→

The SAFE Banking Act ends the public safety problem for legitimate cannabis businesses in Colorado and throughout the country by eliminating the need to operate on a cash-only basis. It now has 206 cosponsors, more than two dozen of which are Republicans.

This is all on the heels of the National Association of Attorneys General and National Association of State Treasurers throwing their support behind this much-needed reform. There is now widespread agreement that it’s time to respect the will of the voters in 47 states (plus the District of Columbia) who have legalized some form of marijuana use.

Congress will be back in session next month, and I need your support to ensure that the SAFE Banking Act comes up for a vote. Sign your name now to help me get this done→

Support the SAFE Banking Act

Thank you for your support!
