Mission Green co-founder Weldon Angelos takes a moment on April 20 to reflect on federal cannabis reform and efforts to free nonviolent cannabis offenders.
Customers at legal medical and adult-use cannabis dispensaries will now have the option to round up their purchases to the nearest dollar to help fund Mission Green Alliance, which is working to end federal cannabis prohibition and provide support to people affected by the war on drugs.
Mission Green Alliance has launched with support from industry participants including Verano Holdings Corp. VRNOF , Glass House Brands Inc. GLASF , AYR Wellness Inc. AYRWF , TerrAscend Corp. TRSSF , PharmaCann, Sunny Daze, 4Front Ventures Corp. FFNT FFNTF , Missouri Health & Wellness, C21 Investments, Vangst, Headset, Springbig, Treez, Salt, Mattio Communications, Aeropay, Flowhub, Eminence Capital, JW Asset Management and CB1 Capital.
Mission Green Alliance will build on the Weldon Project’s work to get people released from jail who were convicted of crimes that are no longer prosecuted under federal law, such as operating a medical-use dispensary that is legal under state law. While Biden has pardoned all those serving sentences in federal prison for nonviolent cannabis possession, many others remain behind bars for other nonviolent federal cannabis infractions such as distribution, Angelos said.
Mission Green is one of several nonprofit efforts to win support from cannabis companies via signs in shops and collecting donations at dispensaries.
