Group pushes to legalize psychedelic mushrooms in Oregon
A group is looking for voters to weigh in on whether Oregon would be the first in the nation to legalize psilocybin mushrooms … The measure would have the state create a board that would lay out the rules and regulations within a year of voters approving the legalization.
Their measure doesn’t call for recreational use to be allowed, instead saying it would be highly regulated, and for people 21 years or older with specific medical needs. “Supervised sessions, kind of a sequence of sessions including assessment and preparation and then the psychedelic administration session,” Tom Eckhert said. “We envision a very regulated production center that the state keeps track of inventory and things of that nature, so we know that it’s not getting out where it shouldn’t be getting out to,” Sheri Eckhert said.
