Help Legalize Marijuana in Texas
Citizen Lobby Day
Presented by: Texas Cannabis Collective
In partnership with: SSDP, Texas Cannabis Policy Center, Last Prisoner Project
Media Partners: Grow House Media, & TX Cannabis TV
Sponsors: Thrive Apothecary, GRAV, The Haze Connect, Cardiel Cannabis Co
Register: Lobby Day
Join us for a day of advocacy at the Texas Capitol! Bringing together advocates from the medical, hemp, criminal justice and consumer spaces, lobby day is your chance to make your voice heard at the legislative session. Share your love for the plant and help us fight for sensible cannabis policies that benefit everyone.
We highly suggest reaching out to your representatives in advance to schedule meetings with their offices. This will help you get to talk with the staffers who handle their cannabis policies, however most offices will allow walk-ins for brief discussions with whichever staffer is available.
