In this episode of Eye on the Issues, we sit down with Jordan Davidson, Government Affairs Director for Smart Approaches to Marijuana (SAM), to unpack major developments in federal marijuana policy — including President Trump's recent executive action to move marijuana from Schedule I to Schedule III. Jordan brings a rare combination of polic...

by Wyoming Liberty Group Recently, Florida voters rejected the legalization of recreational marijuana, defeating the most well-funded pot legalization campaign in U.S. history. We in Wyoming can learn a thing or two from this historic win. For years, pro-pot forces have tried to crack into the Wyoming market, just as they have pried open many other...

by Wyoming Liberty Group "Just say no." Remember that? Or how about this one: "This is your brain on drugs." Once upon a time, decades ago, these were famous taglines for major national campaigns to discourage people—children, in particular—from using illicit drugs. And those ads stuck—people remembered the campaigns because they were effective, an...

by Wyoming Liberty Group Pro-pot forces recently hailed Kamala Harris when the Democratic presidential nominee picked Tim Walz as her running mate for vice president, calling it the "Cannabis Dream Team." More like the marijuana nightmare—at least for us in Wyoming, where we have sought to halt the proverbial barbarians at the gate. We've been succ...

by Wyoming Liberty Group Just because the president of the United States wants something doesn't make it so. That's especially the case with Biden's favorable opinion on marijuana. Lately, the president has been publicly pushing to reschedule marijuana from Schedule I to Schedule III, which would designate it as a less dangerous drug, despite a hal...

by Wyoming Liberty Group Recently, about 150 social workers called for President Biden to decriminalize marijuana. Why should we care in Wyoming? Well, for at least one good reason: Beware of the slippery slope. Yes, that's right. First, Biden pushed to have his administration reschedule marijuana from Schedule I to Schedule III, the first such mov...

by Wyoming Liberty Group It ain't over 'til it's over—or so the old saying goes. And thank goodness for that. Because if it was up to President Joe Biden, marijuana would already be reclassified as a less dangerous drug, opening the door to all kinds of mayhem. In recent months, Biden's administration has taken major steps, pandering primarily to y...



 

 



<a> ![](https://wyliberty.org/images/easyblog_articles/1480/b2ap3_medium_Delta-8-goes-to-court_01.jpg) </a>

 



by Wyoming Liberty Group The argument goes something like this: Delta 8 is a less potent drug than regular marijuana, so what's the big deal? Well, in short, it is a big deal—because the mind-altering drug is in fact quite potent and hazardous. But don't tell that to a group of hemp folks who are suing the state and governor over a recently passed ...



 

 



In this episode of Eye on the Issues, we examine the recent legalization of marijuana in Ohio and its potential impacts on local businesses. We spoke with Angela Phillips, a business owner who runs a steel tube manufacturing company in Ohio. Angela shares her concerns about the legalization, from workplace safety to hiring challenges and the broade...

by Wyoming Liberty Group Just in case you're wondering, we in Wyoming are not alone. Other states are fighting against powerful pro-pot forces that are trying to legalize marijuana throughout the country. We've been part of the resistance movement for several years, and perhaps it's part of our DNA, the rugged individualism and independence that di...
