I will match dollar for dollar every donation our NORML supporters can give before the midterm elections, up to $50,000
Dear fellow freedom enthusiasts,

The White House has secretly amassed a committee of federal agencies from across the government to combat public support for marijuana and cast state legalization measures in a negative light, while attempting to portray the drug as a national threat.
In response to this revelation, NORML Political Director Justin Strekal said:

First Saliva Screening Roadside Test for Cannabis Approved in Canada
The quest for a cannabis breathalyzer to keep stoned drivers off the road is still meandering down its own long road with little to show for its journey.

Bart Schaneman
Theres one major pain point for Oregon marijuana business owners that eclipses all others: a supply glut caused by too much cannabis and insufficient demand.
The surplus of wholesale cannabis has shifted the dynamics of the states MJ industry. It has forced growers to cut costs and eliminate staff. And it has created a buyers market for retailers stocking up on low-priced product.
