Welcome to #AskJP!
This is the 3rd Episode of our Second Season!
In this episode we will be discussing the possibility of legalizing weed in Louisiana and the ongoing decriminalization of marijuana throughout the state.
Our guest is State Representative Richard Nelson. He is the author of HB524 (Which provides for the decriminalization of marijuana and regulation of marijuana for recreational use) and HB434/HB440 (that provide taxes and fees for cannabis)
This ended up being a fun interview where we discussed Richard's background, shared some war stories about fighting over Marijuana with the Sheriff's association and the fate of Bipartisanship in the legislature.
His social media game needs help, so please follow him at nelsonforla across all platforms (seriously, guy needs help).
