Billionaire Charles Koch is investing millions into cannabis legalization efforts this year. After a Zoom call with Snoop Dog, rapper turned Cannabis Connoisseur and entrepreneur, Charles Koch and friends formed the Cannabis Freedom Alliance. The Libertarian is well known for using his massive monetary influence to push legislation in the direction he wants, so there may be a much brighter light at the end of the tunnel as he shines $25 million worth of influence onto this long overdue blight on freedom of choice, a mere fraction of his overall net worth.

The Cannabis Freedom Alliance, which is composed of aligned organizations including Koch-brainchild, Americans For Prosperity, one of the most influential political organizations in the nation. The Cannabis Freedom Alliance, “seeks to end the prohibition and criminalization of cannabis in the United States in a manner consistent with helping all Americans achieve their full potential and limiting the number of barriers that inhibit innovation and entrepreneurship in a free and open market,” as well as providing a white paper on Recommendations for Federal Regulation of Cannabis
