Phenomenal day at @natlcannabisfest! Perfect weather for thousands of people to celebrate #cannabis and #hemp, so close to the Capitol. Surreal and inspiring that so much is happening right here in DC! Many great activists making it happen. @CongresswomanNorton just introduced a new #cannabisbill that was promoted by @dcmj2014, while much more happening on Federal level. #420 #421 #hempday #earthweek @hemphistoryweek
