A statement from MJNA.

As of October 30, 23 states and the District of Columbia had medical marijuana laws on the books. Two of the states, Colorado and Washington, were the first in 2014 to enact “21 and over” adult use recreational marijuana laws. The corporate policy of Medical Marijuana, Inc. is “access for all” to cannabis and the 85 known cannabinoids that comprise the “whole plant.” Election-night results are showing an overwhelming agreement with this position, reinforcing the notion that the prohibition of access to cannabis is being lifted by and for the people.

Constituents in Oregon, Alaska and our great nation’s capitol, the District of Columbia, voted pro-cannabis and are celebrating being the newest “21 and over” marijuana recreational usestates. Another historic move is the first U.S. territory, Guam, that voted in favor of medical marijuana use. This brings the states and territories with “whole plant” laws to 26. While the majority of Florida’s constituents voted for medical cannabis, it was just shy of the 60% required to pass Amendment. Florida does, however, recognize accessibility to cannabidiol or “CBD,” a natural component of the cannabis plant. In all, there are 37 states, one territory and one district that are exercising their rights to cannabis accessibility.

“Any remaining stigma tied to a once historically demonized plant is rapidly fading,” states Michelle Sides, Chief Operating Officer for Medical Marijuana, Inc. “There is a global shift in cannabis consciousness taking place. We applaud the residents in 38 states and territories, representing the majority of the 50 states, which are legislating their states’ rights to cannabis access for recreational adult use, medical purposes or both. We also recognize and commend countries that are actively addressing cultivation and accessibility of cannabis to the benefit of their people. We believe that the voice of the people will be heard and ultimately restore full accessibility of this uniquely versatile ancient plant.”

Medical Marijuana, Inc. has a wide range of portfolio companies that focus on “access for all.” Ironically, these companies provide products from the industrial hemp plant that cannot get anyone “high.” Industrial hemp is cannabis and is therefore classified in the same genus as marijuana. The major difference between industrial hemp and marijuana is the way that the plants are cultivated resulting in the amount of the psychoactive cannabinoid THC.

Andrew Hard, spokesperson for Medical Marijuana, Inc. explains, “Opting to consume cannabidiol (CBD) from hemp is like making a consumer choice of diet or regular soda or even orange juice with or without pulp. Industrial hemp is naturally abundant in CBD that literally counteracts the effects of THC. Anyone seeking varieties of the cannabis plant that are abundant in CBD should do their research. They will find that CBD is CBD. With the efforts taken by the MJNA family of companies in pioneering a first-ever national/international CBD hemp oil pipeline, nobody should have to wait for access to CBD; it is readily available online in all 50 states.”

“From European farmers to customer service representatives, Medical Marijuana, Inc. and its supply chain have proudly and diligently invested more than seven years and hundreds of millions of dollars to provide the world’s largest and highest quality supply of all-natural hemp CBD oil to consumers,” Hard continues. “As a result, today’s cannabis consumers range in age from toddlers to seniors worldwide. The major difference with the CBD products from Medical Marijuana, Inc. companies is quality and consistency that consumers have come to rely on worldwide. With each MJNA Company product, regardless of brand, consumers receive the same laboratory tested and certified quality. This is the most tested product in the world and the proof is in the quality assurance reports that are posted online.”

The most recent quality assurance report is available here.

MJNA‘s talented staff have big hearts and continue to give back to the community through a variety of outreach endeavors. All work toward increased awareness of natural hemp oil products in communities that each calls home. MJNA is honored to contribute to a wide variety of non-profit educational organizations and to remain a service to the community.
