Is Consumer-Friendly Cannabis Policy Possible?(at CWCBExpo)

Friday, Oct 25, 12:30 pm - 1:00 pm

Keith SaundersSociologist, Ph. D.

Board of Directors, NORML

KEYNOTE ADDRESSNot long ago, there was no “medicinal cannabis” or “recreational cannabis,” there was just “marijuana,” and if you grew, sold it, or possessed it, you were committing a crime. Starting with Proposition 215 in 1996, we have seen a social movement toward legalizing cannabis markets across the U.S., that has only built momentum; now, 46 of the 50 states and a handful of territories have cannabis policies directly in violation of the federal Controlled Substances Act. However, as criminal prohibition posed a barrier that users constantly needed to overcome, legal medicinal and adult-use policies offer unique new challenges to consumers being able to use cannabis as they so choose.

Dr. Keith Saunders is a sociologist whose professional work focuses on drug policy and social movements. He has been researching marijuana culture and the marijuana policy reform movement, with special attention given to the relationship between marijuana’s prohibition and its popularity, since 1999. Keith was born and raised in the Boston area.

Hemp is now federally legal!  Hemp is one of the oldest domesticated crops known to man. Hemp can be grown as a renewable source for raw materials that can be incorporated into thousands of products. The fibers and stalks are used in hemp clothing, construction materials, paper, biofuel, plastic composites (see auto above), and more. Its seeds and flowers are used in health foods, organic body care, and other nutraceuticals.
