…lawmaker wants to decriminalize [growing] psychedelic plants [and fungi]
Years after the state legalized the recreational use of cannabis, state Sen. Jeff Irwin (D-Ann Arbor, Michigan) said he wants to expand the conversation around certain substances and what role they should play in society. “Should people go to jail for this? Should we spend money for these crimes? My answer is no,” he said.
SB 499 would amend the public health code to make it not illegal for someone to grow, deliver, or possess entheogenic plants as long as they’re not receiving money for the product. It would also decriminalize the use of entheogenic plants… laws that criminalize their possession weren’t meant for entheogenic plants – and instead were written with harder substances in mind like heroin and cocaine.
