Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) said she supports the national movement to decriminalize psychedelics and plans to again introduce legislation promoting research into such substances, according to an activist who spoke with her following a town hall meeting on Sunday.
At the event in New York City, the congresswoman had a brief conversation with a member of a local group working to advance a measure to remove criminal penalties associated with entheogenic plants and fungi such as psilocybin and ibogaine.
Aaron Genuth, organizing director for Decriminalize Nature New York City, told Marijuana Moment that he discussed the group’s efforts with Ocasio-Cortez in a photo line and said she was “extremely happy” about the group’s work.
The congresswoman “made sure to note that she’s working on it and introducing another measure in Congress,” he said. “It was a really good, positive encounter and confirmed that she’s extremely supportive of what we’re all doing.”

Oh, LSD. THAT’S why people vote for candidates like her.
She is Far Out on the Left, man.
They don’t need it.
Because it is such an important issue!
Now for a side-by-side comparison...
That’s what I wanna here. WHY?
Stoners aren’t much of a problem. They usually just chill in front of the TV with a bag of Cheetos. People who are tripping often have a strange need to be somewhere else, so they go out amongst us. They can easily freak out.
She’s the perfect representative for chemically induced fantasy world.
Psilocybin will make an AOC sighting much worse. No more bad trips!
I thought Congress was already high on psychedelics.
It’s a darned shame that centrifugal force can’t turn boobs into brains.
No way she gets the Mormon vote.
is this satire?
Dope addled voters fall for Democrat Party promises.
Oh boy, that’s just what we need. Sunday, when I went through the drive-up window for my fast food order, I quickly determined that the manager had taken the day off. The young man at the window was so stoned he could hardly keep his feet. I had to keep reminding him what to do. A really mellow fellow.
A population zoned out on pot and acid and mushrooms is much easier to handle.
The indoctrination re: "safe spaces" is similar (though not identical). Convince people that they need "safe spaces" also makes those zoo cages look appealing. Zoo cages are ultra "safe" after all.
Under communism/globalism, you will have your own safe cage and receive all the free stuff you need...including drugs.
