As the momentum for cannabis legalization grows, social equity continues to be a key issue for the industry and politics on both sides of the aisle. The impact of the cannabis prohibition that devastated communities across the country still reverberates today. The Cannabis Regulators of Color Coalition (CRCC) seeks to help repair this damage by educating political leaders on cannabis and the business ecosystem and guiding revisions of the SAFE Banking Act, proposed legislation facilitating financial services in the United States cannabis industry. Today, CRCC released its white paper, “Not a SAFE Bet: Equitable Access to Cannabis Banking,” which details how the SAFE Banking Act is far from a safe bet to realize fair and equitable access to financial services in the cannabis industry.
“Not a SAFE Bet” identifies key challenges and provides powerful solutions that will ensure the SAFE Banking Act provides equitable access to financial services.
