The federal prohibition of marijuana is out of step with what the American people, across the political spectrum, want and makes a mockery of equal justice. State after state is legalizing marijuana, but federal law is holding back small businesses from thriving.

Curious how much the tax will be for rec #marijuana sales? If passed, our legislation will require a 5% special tax. That revenue will be required to fund public safety programs, mental health services, and post-traumatic stress disorder treatment for #veterans.

State-legal businesses and their employees are put at risk everyday. We need the #SAFEBankingAct to get cash off our streets and help protect our communities. cbsloc.al/38jZ728

The law prohibits banks from providing services to cannabis businesses in states where medical or retail sales are legal. Cash-only operations pose safety threats. Again we ask the US Senate to pass the #SAFEBankingAct to give this industry access to the federal banking system.

The #SAFEBankingAct is an immediate solution to get cash off our streets and ensure state-legal, legitimate businesses can operate like any other type of business. Thank you @RepPerlmutter for leading the way!

Legalizing cannabis for adults has been a wise investment. In 2021 alone, legalization states generated more than $3.7 billion in cannabis tax revenue from adult-use sales. mpp.org/issues/legalization/…

Our legal cannabis businesses should be treated like any other legal businesses in Colorado. #safebanking #cannabisindustry #copolitics
We're long past due for the reforms in the #MOREAct. We must take action to end unjust marijuana policy, uphold states’ rights & ensure the safety & equity of legal businesses. The House once again took action to pass meaningful cannabis reform & I urge the Senate to do the same.
