Update: Legalizing Psychedelics

What is happening? A bill in California, Senate Bill 519 (2022 | CA) that sought to decriminalize psychedelic mushrooms and the like has been amended to study the legalization/decriminalization of psychedelics.

Why is this important? A state likely to reach decriminalization early, isn’t jumping up and down to decriminalize your shrooms.

How will this be important? “Psychedelic drugs, which are not addictive, have incredible promise when it comes to mental health and addiction treatment. We are not giving up.”- Author of SB519
