ALT How is the City of Portland, OR celebrating 4/20? We're celebrating by amplifying the community-led #cannabis policy recommendations that they shared at a press conference held earlier this month. To summarize the press conference, here is a 3-minute video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pGD_7KtkjQs On April 11, local government officials, cannabis entrepreneurs and industry advocates came together to demonstrate support for the release of the Cannabis Policy Oversight Team (CPOT)’s policy report. The press conference was the first held in front of City Hall in over two years and you can watch the full recording on YouTube. CPOT is the City’s official cannabis advisory body, consisting of community stakeholders and the country’s top cannabis industry leaders. CPOT explores current cannabis laws and policies at the local, state, and federal level, provides industry perspective to Civic Life’s Cannabis Program, and helps inform the City's cannabis-related policies.
