Special Guest: Bernie Moreno, US Senate Candidate
Issue 2 - “Commercialize, Regulate, Legalize, and Tax the Adult Use of Cannabis”
Actual text of the resolution is 51 pages long!!!
And very, very difficult to find online
While much is said about “cannabis” the bulk of the language deals with “Social Equity and Jobs Program” - a new effort under the Ohio Department of Development
The actual text contains the word “equity” over twice as many times as the word “license”.
Section 2: “provide funding and social equity opportunities in the state”
Section 3: “Prescribing standards and procedures in coordination with the department of development to administer and enforce the cannabis social equity and jobs program”
The Department of Development - “Creating a better life for all Ohioans”
Already sounds like an “equity” focused organization
New “Social Equity and Jobs Program”
Funded by legalizing and licensing cannabis
Easily expanded to every area of commerce, business and government activity
Also includes language that forces cannabis into poor and impoverished neighborhoods
Anyone previously convicted of selling weed, can get Ohio funding to get back into the business!
Aside from the obvious issues with widespread use of marijuana, the focus on creating a whole new “equity” program has nothing to do with the legalization effort.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
