REMINDER: Join us for a cannabis advocacy day TOMORROW in Montpelier

The legislative session is beginning, and we need to make sure cannabis regulation is a top priority — write your representatives and urge them to support S. 54!

The Vermont Legislature convenes tomorrow — Thursday, January 9 — and we will be at the State House to remind legislators that cannabis regulation should be a top priority in 2020. All members of the Vermont Coalition to Regulate Marijuana are encouraged to join us in Montpelier as we encourage legislators to pass S. 54.

Here are the details:

WHAT: Cannabis Advocacy Day

WHERE: Vermont State House, 115 State Street, Montpelier

WHEN: 8-10 a.m., State House Cafeteria, 2nd Floor — Informal meet-and-greet breakfast with legislators. Complimentary coffee, bagels, and pastries will be served.
11 a.m., Cedar Creek Room, 2nd Floor — Press conference with legislators and advocates.

WHO: Supporters of S. 54 — Please RSVP here.

If you’re coming to Montpelier, it may be a good idea to reach out to your representatives in advance to ask if they’re available to meet with you while you’re in Montpelier. You can find your representatives’ contact info here.

You can read a summary of the bill, as approved by the House Government Operations Committee, here.

If you haven’t already done so, please email your representatives now and ask for their support. Then, share this message with your family and friends!
