There are many rules that govern the marijuana industry that need to be developed, or need to be improved, or need to be protected. The rules that are changed/created/implemented in the next handful of years will be the framework that the industry is governed by for decades to come. It’s extremely important that things are done right.
That’s why I’m encouraging everyone and anyone that is in the industry to participate in the National Cannabis Industry Association’s (NCIA) upcoming Policy Symposium and Member Lobby Days. You can find out more about becoming a member of NCIA at this link here. Be aware that you don’t have to be a member to attend, but it does get you a reduced price.
I think the symposium portion will be great, but I’m particularly excited about the lobby education and action portion. Below is more info about the event, which will be April 28-30 in Washington DC:
