Civil Rights Leaders Republican Theresa Yarbrough and Democrat Mike Harris Unite to Lead a Groundbreaking Initiative in Georgia, Aiming to End Marijuana Prohibition in Georgia
Theresa Yarbrough, a long-time prominent marijuana activist and founder of the GA Cannabis Industry Alliance, has teamed up with Mike Harris, a revered political civil rights activist and President of the Georgia Hemp Association. This collaboration will transcend party lines, emphasizing the paramount importance of human life and freedom for individuals involved in the use and distribution of marijuana. Together, they are dedicated to advancing legislation that not only propels this cause forward but also seeks to gain a political advantage for those impacted by marijuana prohibition. Setting aside party politics, they have embraced the challenge of solidifying the mission's objectives to end marijuana prohibition in Georgia once and for all. This endeavor serves as a testament to their unwavering dedication, illustrating that their passion and determination will drive them to fulfill their mission. What we are doing now is rallying members of both political parties to join our campaign, driving legislative efforts to end marijuana prohibition in Georgia and cease the criminalization of marijuana users. We urge you to recognize this as a pivotal mission that demands the support of individuals from all walks of life, and political affiliations. Together, we can ignite substantial change and ensure the rights and freedoms of marijuana users are upheld and safeguarded. Notably, a significant portion of this campaign will involve grassroots efforts in collaboration with other organizations advocating for the end of prohibition. We assert that any legislator who takes steps toward achieving our mission will receive our unwavering support for their legislation, irrespective of party lines. This is a call for unity and action, actions that are not based on political affiliations but rather focused on the advancement of legislative efforts aimed at ending marijuana prohibition in Georgia and putting an end to the unjust treatment of marijuana users as criminals. Utilizing Democratic Representative Eric Bell's decriminalization bill in Georgia that will be introduced in the '24 Legislative Session can significantly propel the campaign led by Republican Theresa Yarbrough and Democrat Mike Harris. Representative Bell's efforts to reform Georgia's marijuana laws align with the mission of the campaign, which aims to end marijuana prohibition and advocate for the rights and freedoms of marijuana users. By leveraging Representative Bell's bill, the campaign can gain momentum and support from like-minded individuals and organizations, furthering the cause for legislative change in Georgia. Additionally, the introduction of Representative Bell's bill can serve as a catalyst for bipartisan discussions and actions, potentially garnering support from both sides of the aisle, which is crucial for the success of the campaign. Our years of activism have encountered challenges in securing support and funding to propel us forward. However, with the recent legalization of hemp and marijuana sales, the landscape has shifted in our favor. We now hold a significant share of the industry's market, empowering us to shape the future of the cannabis industry and drive substantial change. This newfound control allows us to lead the crusade towards freedom, guiding people to the voting booth on this issue. Legislators should be taking note of the market share we now command and crafting language accordingly. Yarbrough and Harris will provide more information about their plans and strategy to encourage those dedicated to this issue to participate in the voting process. If you have legislation that will contribute to ending the jailing of the industry's market share, please let us know so that we can consider your bill as part of this campaign. Your support and involvement will play a crucial role in advancing our mission and bringing about meaningful change. Whether through funding, volunteering, or spreading the word, your contribution will help us create a compelling case for support and inspire action, ensuring that our campaign is successful and impactful. We welcome your participation in any capacity that aligns with your interests and abilities, as every form of support is invaluable in driving our cause forward. It's time for the Closing Argument.
