Jade Green, special advisor to Nabis Holdings participated in the KCSA Strategic Communications’ Inaugural Congressional Cannabis Day Forum that took place in Washington, DC on May 21, 2019. Green attended a panel discussing important legislative changes such as the federal Farm Bill and the impact that these developments have had on the cannabis industry, according to a company press release.
This first-of-its-kind event provided opportunities for engagement in dialogue about cannabis and the related legislative changes occurring in the country, Green said in a news release. “Nabis will continue to be a part of the resounding voices urging congress to modernize federal cannabis laws to more effectively facilitate the growth of America’s small businesses and provide protections for consumers,” she continued.
The aim of the Congressional Cannabis Day Forum was to take a deep look at the current state and the future of the cannabis industry. The forum featured a series of panel discussions that focused on critical issues like capital markets, social justice, veterans’ issues and CBD/hemp, among others.
