Today on @higherexchanges, @MorganPaxhia and I are going to cover five hard questions that are on most of our minds. See you live, here, in 45 minutes!

Assuming things stay on schedule, we are planning a special live @higherexchanges tomorrow at 3 PM EST with @MorganPaxhia, @anandastrategy, and @srg444 to digest the news. 🔗 marijuanamoment.net/white-ho… $MSOS

This is my dad, Mike. He’s 80 and lives with Chronic Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), the result of two devastating car accidents. He hasn’t been able to work since he was 48. At one point, doctors had him on 1,000 mg of OxyContin a day just to manage the pain. The side effects were brutal. He became dependent quickly, and the medication still barely helped his pain. Ten years ago, everything changed. He found a cannabis doctor, tapered off opioids completely, and now manages his pain with cannabis — safely, effectively, and without addiction. Why am I sharing this? Because everyone in this country deserves access to the same option my dad had. It makes no sense that America freely prescribes highly addictive opioids but restricts access to the plant that helped him reclaim his life. Will Schedule III help? Maybe. But what if you live in Nebraska or another prohibition state? In places like that, my dad would not have been able to make this transition. Bottom line: It’s time to give all Americans open, legal access to cannabis. As the 1991 Gatorade ad said, “Be like Mike.”
