The below alert was issued by our colleagues at Blunt Strategies - please see below!

Thanks to all of you who've called and emailed—they are hearing us loud and clear. But the deal isn't dead yet, and we need to turn up the heat.

They are moving fast to finalize a 15% tax on hemp and cannabis products. We need every single business, customer, and supporter to make another call or send another email TODAY.
 

CALL & EMAIL RIGHT NOW:
Governor Walz, House & Senate Leaders, and Your Legislators.
 

Even if you already did it, do it again.
Tell your customers.
Forward this email.
Post on social media.
Keep the pressure on.

We can stop this, but only if we act TODAY. 
 

You can find talking points here for communicating about this with policymakers, customers, and the public.

 

Contact Information for Legislative Leaders:

Let's remind our leaders that Minnesota's hemp and cannabis industry is built by local entrepreneurs who cannot afford to be taxed out of existence.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Leili at [email protected].

In solidarity,

The Blunt Strategies Team
