The group has its eyes on the 2024 election.
A group of marijuana industry heavyweights have formed what they're calling the country's first super PAC devoted to federal pot legalization.
Independent political action committees, also know as super PACs, can raise unlimited sums of money from individuals and corporations. Although super PACs aren't legally permitted to directly donate to political parties, candidates or campaigns, they can run supportive advertisements and find plenty of other ways to help chosen causes with their deep financial resources.
Of the Cannabis Council's 38 listed members, eight are located in Colorado, including edibles brand 1906, software company Akerna, Cozen O'Connor law firm, dispensary chain Native Roots, Perkins Cole law firm, marijuana ownership group Schwazze, Vicente LLP law firm and edibles manufacturer Wana Brands.
Legalize America says that criminal expungement efforts, ending prohibition and responsible use are all part of its mission. According to USCC communications advisor Josh Glasstetter, the intention is to draw in more companies, donors, celebrity endorsements and"especially consumers." Authentic, a political consulting and fundraising firm, is currently working with Legalize America, according to the PAC's website. Past Authentic clients include the campaigns of President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, Colorado Senator John Hickenlooper, California Governor Gavin Newsom, United States Senator Kyrsten Sinema and dozens of other Democratic Congressional and gubernatorial candidates.
