 Dear Green Cross Members, Friends & Family, We hope you all enjoyed a wonderful and relaxing Memorial Day Weekend! As a reminder, we recently extended our hours of operation from 8 AM to 9 PM daily, 7 days a week to further accommodate our members going forward. We are pleased to announce that The Green Cross won the 2021 Talk of the Town Award! Thank you for continuing to support our business and making it possible for us to win this prestigious award year after year. We couldn't have done it without you! The Green Cross recently updated and digitized our Member Handbook & Agreement to make it easier for new and existing members to access helpful information about our organization, cannabis, its benefits, and safe usage. We strongly believe in staying informed, getting involved, and most importantly, knowing your rights. For this reason, there is a whole section dedicated to knowing your rights. If you would like to learn more, please review our Membership Handbook & Agreement. As we announced in our last newsletter, our entire staff is fully vaccinated against COVID-19 for the protection of our valued members and community. As an essential business, we made this a priority in an effort to foster a safe environment for you to purchase cannabis in-person. Now that vaccinations are available to 12 and order individuals, we encourage all our members to get vaccinated too. We all need to do our part to slow the spread of COVID-19. For more information on getting vaccinated, please visit Vaccines.gov. Let's put an end to this virus once and for all! While the CDC recently released new guidelines on indoor mask wearing, The Green Cross will continue to follow safety protocols, require masks inside our facility, and practice social distancing both inside and outside our storefront location. Members are no longer required to wear mask while waiting to enter The Green Cross, however, you must maintain 6 feet between you, other members and our staff, and put your mask on when entering the facility. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding. Got change?! Due to the national coin shortage caused by the pandemic, The Green Cross has a limited supply of coins while we continue to operate as a cash-only business. In order to continue to provide change to our members, we ask that anyone with spare change lying around exchange it for paper bills or in-store credit. Our staff can assist you with counting the coins and translating them to the equivalent dollar amounts. In the event you have a large amount of coins to exchange, there might be short processing delays. However, we have a state-of-the-art counting machine to minimize extended wait times. If you're short on time, you're more than welcome to drop off your coins and we'll give you store credit or make a cash payment available for pick-up on your next visit. Father's Day is just around the corner and we've got you covered! What better way to treat the dad figures in your life than with their favorite cannabis products? We are offering fantastic specials, price drops, and many new products to try this month. Keep reading for more details!

We remember the many lives lost to the HIV/AIDS epidemic, and commemorate the Stonewall riots of June 1969. We owe much of our country's success to the many LGBTQ pioneers and innovators throughout history. Your impact has been monumental and we honor each and every one of you. We hope you all have a wonderful time celebrating Pride Month! In celebration of Pride Month, we have created a limited edition Pride T-shirt available for $14.99 + tax. All proceeds from the sale of these t-shirts will go toward our goal of donating $11,000 to the following LGBTQ organizations for the month of June: Equality California - EQCA.org Equality Federation - EqualityFederation.org Glide Foundation - Glide.org Human Rights Campaign - HRC.org LYRIC Center for LGBTQQ Youth - LYRIC.org San Francisco AIDS Foundation - SFAF.org San Francisco LGBT Center - SFCenter.org Shanti Project - Shanti.org Transgender Gender-variant and Intersex Justice Project - TGIJP.org Thank you in advance for supporting our efforts and Happy Pride!

Thank you to the many black voices throughout history and in the present day who continue to empower us, fight for what is right, and lead us into a better and brighter future.

House reintroduces bill to decriminalize cannabis, create social equity programs After voting overwhelmingly last year to decriminalize cannabis at the federal level, congressional leaders reintroduced a bill Friday to strike marijuana from the list of controlled substances and invest in communities disproportionately affected by the so-called drug war. The Marijuana Opportunity Reinvestment and Expungement Act of 2021, also known as the MORE Act, would also eliminate criminal penalties, clear criminal records and create social equity programs focused on repairing damage to individuals and communities impacted by decades of prohibition.

Take a stroll down Haight Street toward Golden Gate Park and you’ll see reminders everywhere of the connection between cannabis and the 1960s counterculture. This neighborhood was the epicenter of the Summer of Love, where hippies gathered to sing their flower power anthems in a haze of pot smoke. In the neighboring Castro District, Brownie Mary laid the groundwork for the compassionate use movement, selling potent baked goods to gay men suffering from a highly stigmatized and misunderstood disease that some conservative Americans still blame on “lifestyle choices.” Read more » Tax guide: Best city to buy legal weed in California America overthrew the British over some unfair taxation. Today, California cannabis consumers seem due for a mini revolt of their own. Weed lovers can save hundreds of dollars per year on legal herb by avoiding excessive “local cannabis business taxes” in California. These complex local charges have gouged consumers at the dispensary sales counter since 2018, when the state switched over from medical marijuana to adult-use pot under Proposition 64. Read more » R.I.P. Delta-8 THC: Why States And DEA Want It Banned Delta-8 THC had a good run. People made money, customers were happy, and it all seemed legal to boot. Like all good things in life, states and the DEA are doing everything in their power to ensure that delta-8’s run comes to an end. Let’s talk about why. For those of you who may not have been paying attention, delta-8 is one of many, many cannabinoids in cannabis (marijuana and hemp) plants. Unlike CBD, it gets you high. It’s not usually present in high volume in cannabis, so it’s usually derived by converting hemp CBD through chemical processes, and can’t be legally derived from marijuana under federal law.

Sincerely, Kevin Reed Founder & President The Green Cross  Dear Green Cross Members, Friends & Family, We are pleased to announce that the entire Green Cross staff has now received their first COVID-19 vaccinations, and are scheduled to receive their second round of vaccinations in the coming weeks. As an essential business, we prioritized this in an effort to protect our staff and foster a safe environment for members to purchase medicine in-person. While we know there are still risks involved, we are proud to do our part to slow the spread of COVID-19 in our communities.

Women’s History Month is a celebration of women’s many contributions to history, culture and society, and has been observed annually in the month of March in the United States since 1987. 2021 has already been a monumental year as we broke one glass ceiling and swore in our first female Vice President Kamala Harris, a local hero of ours. As Kamala said herself, "While I may be the first woman in this office, I will not be the last." When women lead, we all benefit. As the late and great Ruth Bader Ginsburg once said, "Women belong in all places where decisions are being made." We couldn't agree more. Thank you to the countless women throughout history and in the present day who continue to empower us, fight for what is right, and lead us into a better and brighter future.

But the compromise bill is receiving blow back from some legalization advocates who say it falls short of racial justice aims. Lawmakers in both the House and Senate passed the bill in a Saturday legislative session in a party line vote of 48 to 43 in the House and 20 to 19 in the Senate. The legislation would legalize the use of cannabis by people over the age of 21 starting in 2024, when retail markets would be established. The law would also allow possession of up to an ounce by anyone over 21 and establishes a state agency to oversee regulation of the cannabis market. Read more » Advocates Back Legislative Effort to Legalize Marijuana in New YorkProponents of legalizing recreational marijuana in New York are putting their weight behind a bill in the state legislature, saying they prefer it to the competing framework that Gov. Andrew Cuomo has included as part of his proposed $193 billion budget. Associations representing growers and medical marijuana companies that operate in the state as well as the Drug Policy Alliance, which supports legalizing the drug for social-justice reasons, issued a rare joint statement in support of the pending Marijuana Regulation and Taxation Act, or MRTA. Read more » Washington, D.C. Could Allow Marijuana Sales Under Mayor’s New Bill And Democratic Control Of Congress The mayor of Washington, D.C. on Friday introduced a bill to create a regulated marijuana market in the District. And while similar legislation has been introduced in past years, the new proposal comes as Democrats take control of both chambers of Congress—a situation that bodes well for removing a federal spending rider that has long blocked legal cannabis sales from being implemented in the nation’s capital. In other words, there’s renewed hope among advocates that 2021 will finally be the year that a commercial cannabis industry can be established in D.C., where voters approved an initiative legalizing marijuana possession and home cultivation in 2014. Congressional appropriations legislation has since prevented the District from authorizing sales, with Republicans in the majority in at least one chamber on Capitol Hill. Read more » Feds Shouldn’t Waste Resources On Marijuana Enforcement In Legal States, Biden AG Pick Says President Joe Biden’s pick for attorney general said on Monday that it is not “a useful use of limited resources” to go after people who are complying with state marijuana laws. He also citied cannabis enforcement as an example of the racially discriminatory impact of the criminal justice system. Judge Merrick Garland, whose views on marijuana policy have been largely unclear to date, said that the issue is “a question of prioritization about resources and discretion,” and he signaled that the Justice Department would adopt a hands-off policy for most cannabis cases, similar to what was implemented under President Barack Obama, if he was confirmed.

Grocery delivery services like Good Eggs have changed consumer habits enough to promise lasting success after COVID fears subside. Tech has been on a tear; look no farther than the city’s gilded-age IPOs and Salesforce’s blockbuster acquisition of Slack. Here’s another economic success you might have missed: cannabis. Nationwide, locked-down and stressed-out Americans have been smoking more pot than before. In COVID-crushed San Francisco, the local cannabis sales tax is the only tax projected to exceed budgeted expectations — by about $700,000, according to a recent city controller’s report. Read more » When Cannabis Came Out: Remembering Prop 215 Recently, SF Weekly journalist Veronica Irwin went out on a limb and exclaimed, “It’s because of gay activism that Californians have a regulated cannabis market.” She rattled off a list of famous gays, without genuinely honoring the foot soldiers, not the superstars of the movement. Guys like Michael Koehn, 74, and David Goldman, 69, a gay couple, who met in 1988 and married in 2008. Both have spread the ganja gospel far and wide, and both have benefitted from recreational and medicinal weed. When I visited them in the Castro District, they shared their favorite cannabis products with me—along with their own individual stories that tell much of the bigger picture.

Humbled by an ongoing market correction and subsequent cash crunch, many cannabis companies faced a tough year ahead — even without a global pandemic to contend with. Throughout the terrible lows of 2020, though, there were unexpected flickers of optimism.

Gavin Newsom’s senior adviser on cannabis business said Thursday. The rate of legal sales has increased this year, and in the third quarter the state fetched $306.7 million in excise, cultivation and sales taxes, bringing the overall year-to-date total to $777 million, said Nicole Elliot, who delivered the keynote during a virtual regional cannabis conference sponsored by the North Bay Business Journal.

The new order takes effect Saturday, and its restrictions will be implemented only if any of five specific California regions see ICU bed capacities drop below 15% – a threshold not yet met by the five regions.
