What's To Come With Future Marijuana Laws



Exciting changes continue to help the marijuana movement grow and flourish. Most recently during a series of YouTube interviews, President Obama illustrated a forthright laissez-faire attitude towards the marijuana legalization trials occurring in the states. On the contrary to previous administrations, Obama strongly demonstrated that the administration would not try to beat back legalization efforts. In fact, Obama even went as far to express that "we're not going to spend a lot of resources to turn back decisions that have been made at the state level on this issue." 

Currently four states, Washington, Colorado, Alaska and Oregon, and the District of Columbia have ended pot prohibition which totals to 18 million people. That number is expected to triple by Election Day in 2016. 

So where are all of these legislation bills popping up around the country? California is the big prize with 38 million people and through legislations in 2015, California is expected to go green in 2016. Nevada, Arizona, Maine, Massachusetts, Missouri, and Vermont are all making huge strides in legislation due to their activist and end prohibition groups. Some of these many groups include; NORML, Legalize Maine, Vermont Coalition and Show Me Cannabis.

What's Happening In Washington: Marijuana Advertising Ban Rule Unconstitutional


According to theweedblog.com, a Washington Judge recently ruled that Medical Marijuana advertising bans are unconstitutional. Before this ban was ruled unconstitutional, doctors and other healthcare professionals were not permitted to mention marijuana in advertisements. However, Pierce County Superior Court Judge Elizabeth Martin ruled that these advertising bans went against both federal and state laws of free speech. An attorney mentioned that the only advertising ban that should be in place for any professional should be advertising false or misleading information. 

The Satori Family loves to see the movements, rulings, cases and legalizations that continue to help the community of marijuana grow and flourish both medically and recreationally.
