I know it is late on a Friday, but I wanted to make sure you saw the big news out of Washington, DC!
Today, the House of Representatives ONCE AGAIN supported the will of the people by approving the SAFE Banking Act as part of an expansive bill to promote American businesses, the America COMPETES Act.
This is the sixth time this important reform has been approved by the "people's chamber."
Unfortunately, we've been met with continued inaction by the Senate on this much-needed change that would improve public safety and make it easier for small cannabis businesses to survive, thrive, and bolster the economy. And once again, we need YOUR HELP.
If small marijuana-related businesses are to have a chance at success and keep their employees and customers safe, and to be competitive with the growing legal international market when prohibition finally ends, we need to act NOW to remove as barriers to their survival and treat them like businesses in any other industry. This measure is just one step, but an important one towards creating a regulated cannabis market that benefits consumers and entrepreneurs.
