Washington, D.C. – The National Cannabis Roundtable (NCR) today released the following statement in response to the House Judiciary Committee’s consideration of the Marijuana Opportunity Reinvestment and Expungement Act (MORE Act).
“The National Cannabis Roundtable applauds the efforts of the Judiciary Committee for its leadership and commitment to advancing federal policies that will begin to resolve the problems and injustices in communities adversely affected by the War on Drugs by providing opportunities in the cannabis industry for minority and women-owned businesses, and righting the wrongs caused by federal prohibition,” said Terry Holt, Spokesperson for the National Cannabis Roundtable.
