Congressman Ed Perlmutter, Former U.S. Representative for Colorado's 7th Congressional District (2007-2023), joins Tyler's Alex Valvassori to discuss the SAFE Banking Act, SAFER Banking Act, and the Congressman's history with legalizing and regulating cannabis within the United States. This episode was recorded on October 2, 2023. There are references to specific roles held by members of congress that became outdated by the time the episode was released on October 16, 2023. Learn more about the resources referenced in this episode:Key Cannabis Licensing System Priorities BlogThe SAFE Banking ActThe SAFER Banking Act  Mr. Perlmutter is a former member of the U.S. House of Representatives, having served eight terms representing the Seventh Congressional District of Colorado.

You wouldn't normally expect to use an interview with a United States Senator to talk about what's going on in the House of Representatives, but that's what we did on today's episode of Plain Talk. Even though Sen. Kevin Cramer is a former member of the House, and knows a thing or two about how that chamber operates, he isn't currently a member. Still, the drama in the House, which is currently paralyzed for want of the leadership of an elected Speaker, is impacting his job as a Senator. Congress can't do anything if one of its component houses cannot do its work. Cramer also talked about the ugly new war between Israel and Hamas, how America should respond to it, as well as to criticism he's received from an anti-marijuana group over his support for the SAFE Banking Act. Also on this episode, Wednesday co-host Chad Oban and I discussed the most recent Supreme Court ruling on a major spending and policy bill which has been declared unconstitutional. The court has refused to give lawmakers more time for a special session to address the situation. Want to subscribe to Plain Talk?

Money expert Liz Koh joins Kathryn to talk about how banks have always been a safe haven for investors during times of economic downturn, but recent failures around the world have shaken investor confidence. There are two important questions on the minds of investors. Are banks as safe as they used to be? Will we see bank failures in New Zealand? She'll talk about the Reserve Bank's financial stability report, which is published every six months, and credit rating details of banks which can be found here. For a full explanation of credit ratings, there is a very useful guide on the Reserve Bank website.

Are you ready to get hurt again? In this episode we discuss SAFE Banking, a confusing macro environment, recession fears and industry trends

The #SAFE Banking Act is a bipartisan bill recently introduced in #Congress that seeks to provide protections for financial institutions that take on cannabis-related businesses as clients. If passed, the act would prevent federal regulators from taking punitive action against banks and other financial providers who work with marijuana-related businesses. Federal #Legalization News | SAFE Banking Act Re-introduced Again If passed, it would be an important step forward in ensuring that those who have been convicted of minor #marijuananews offenses are not held back from accessing educational opportunities or employment based on their records. This bill is supported by both Democrats and Republicans, making it a promising step towards justice reform. Get in touch with us:

Jordan Youkilis is Wells Scholar, fund manager, and cannabis expert. What are his New Year's Resolutions? He's countering the Drug War. Listen to find out how. Jordan Youkilis' Resolution: This year, I'm resolving to write a revolutionary proposal for sensible drug policy. 50+ years into the War on Drugs, and my heart breaks as its devastation continues compounding. Despite trillions spent, addiction rates haven't moved, and overdose deaths continue rising. The US has 5% of the total population, yet 25% of the prison population. Black men have a 1 in 3 chance of incarceration during their lifetime (vs. 1 in 17 for whites). Meanwhile, the opioid epidemic became the heroin epidemic, which became the fentanyl epidemic. We have the highest per capita cost of health insurance. Yet out pharmaceutical-focused system has taken America from one of the healthiest countries 40 years ago to dead last among industrialized nations. It's time we recognize that our drug policy is fundamentally flawed, and dramatic reform is required to fix it. Prohibition does not work, and the negative consequences exceed those of the substances themselves. Yet our politicians can't even pass commonsense legislation like SAFE Banking – with bipartisan and overwhelming popular support. In the meantime, drugs continue to divide the nation along racial and party lines. Therefore, I'm writing a proposal for our elected officials with revolutionary ideas to fix the War on Drugs once and for all. To the leaders in the movement for sensible drug policy, your input and support on this project is greatly appreciated. Some ideas I'm currently considering: 1. Immediate descheduling of cannabis and rescheduling of psychedelics. 2. Health policy that treats drug addicts as human beings suffering, not criminals to be locked in cages. 3. Broad criminal justice reform – incl. elimination of mandatory minimums and asset forfeitures. 4. Reparations to communities subjugated by the War on Drugs. Investments focused on local programs proven to reduce recidivism and break multi-generational cycles of poverty. 5. Full transparency into campaign financing. Specific scrutiny focused on funding from pharmaceutical co.'s, for-profit prisons, and A&D contractors. 6. Prevention of patenting naturally occurring cannabinoids and other plant molecules. 7. Independent investigation into the intelligence agencies' involvement in the illicit drug trade. Officials complicit in drug trafficking should face criminal charges and be brought to justice. 8. Research funding into the benefits of cannabis and other alternative healing modalities. 9. Implement a path to repeal the Controlled Substances Act and UN Convention on Psychotropic Substances. In the words of Dr. King, it's time “to remind America of the fierce urgency of Now. This is not time to engage in the luxury of cooling off or to take the tranquilizing drug of gradualism. Now is the time to make real the promise of democracy.” Let's make 2023 the year we end the War on Drugs and restore the integrity of medicine. Love to you all!
