Oaksterdam’s founders have taken a hands-on approach to cannabis policy reform since the early 1990s. We advocated for the nation’s first medical use law and ran the first campaign for adult use in the modern era, laying the groundwork for global legalization.
Now that federal reform is here, we are working to drive conversation that shapes implementation surrounding the move to Schedule III while continuing to promote more meaningful reform through Congress. JOIN US.

Oaksterdam is hosting a series of workshops through our Legal Department to break down how federal policy is changing, what operators and consumers can do to shape policy, and to identify previously unknown implications of rescheduling, so we can learn more together.
