1. We are The United Cannabis Patients and Caregivers of Maine aka "The Maine Cannabis Coalition"

The out of state owned corrupt corporate cannabis scum have continually used Maine'southward land authorities as a weapon to hold dorsum local small medical marijuana businesses for over a decade. Through high caliber lobbyists, lawyers, political ties and funding that comes from Wallstreet, they accept caused pregnant impairment and destruction to our small business sales numbers, our job growth, our state economy and overall the country'southward best interests. Information technology should exist illegal and no state should ever have to deal with a authorities sponsored corporate takeover endeavour!!! We are sick of this crap...........please join the states and assist u.s.a. together speak up and make change!

Medical Marijuana is at present Maine's 2nd biggest commodity only behind lobster. We went from 385 caregiver employees in 2018 to iv,500 in 2020.........In 2018 we had under $30 million in manufacture reported sales to $266 1000000 in 2020.........45,000 patients in 2018 to 96,000 patients in 2020 and we take become the East Declension's favorite state to visit for medical marijuana medicine. This didn't happen by blow it happened because some pissed off people similar myself got together and wrote a damn bill or two (LD 1539 + 238). And since we take fought molar and blast to make the changes that needed to happen to open the flood gates to a free market place with off-white and equal opportunity for Mainer's no thing your net $ worth or your last name.

In that location is a strong movement in the corporate lobbying teams playbook to make medical use laws, rules and regulations identical to developed use. This is destructive intentionally and by design forth with the current proposed rules. We demand a active team in Augusta looking out for us daily.
