In 1973, Oregon was the first state in the union to decriminalize cannabis, in 2014 they became the fourth to legalize it, but now that it's an open adult use market, it's been a struggle to grow a business let alone grow the plant. Now with the merger of two business associations, the Oregon Cannabis Association (OCA) and the Cannabis Industry Alliance of Oregon (CIAO), Oregon advocates are hopeful this will be the first step towards positive economic change.

You have to give cannabis attorneys credit, most of them want you to know that they are cool and can relate to those who are enlightened by this plant medicine. Jeffrey Hoffman from New York City is one of them. Even his Linked In Profile is an image of him with his beloved New York Yankees hat, and a joint in his mouth! He calls himself a NY City cannabis insider, and he hosts a podcast show called Ask me Anything about Cannabis? On In the Weeds with JImmy Young, they talk about the changes in the New York state regulations, SAFE Banking, and a whole bunch of other issues including the legalization question.
