TELL SACRAMENTO: FREEZE THE TAX
Do you want to pay 25% more in taxes on safe and regulated cannabis products?
California's state government is scheduled to raise the cannabis excise tax on July 1st (from 15% to 19%), leaving cannabis consumers and patients holding the bill at a time when many are struggling with cost-of-living challenges.
This fight is far from over. The state budget must be approved by June 15th, so urge your state legislators to freeze the tax TODAY.
Contact your state legislators in 30 seconds or less!
