Make us so conscious of Your presence and so receptive to the leading of Your Spirit that we shall be directed into right paths, make wise decisions, and formulate great plans for the welfare of all our people and the well-being of Missouri.

  • What Happened in Missouri? America's Most Controversial Medical Marijuana Licensing Process Explained
    What Happened in Missouri? America’s Most Controversial Medical Marijuana Licensing Process Explained Cannabis Consumers Coalition, October 29, 2020 Executive Summary: The struggle to control medical marijuana licenses & market share in Missouri has been hotly contested since at least 2014. This has led to 5 diverging campaign groups differing over access to licensing and strategy during the time period 2014-2018. In November 2018, Missouri voters approved New Approach Missouri’s initiative petition, Constitutional Amendment 2, implementing medical marijuana in Missouri (now Amendment XIV to the Missouri Constitution). In January 2020, some 1800 out of 2200 license applications were denied, sparking a public controversy & legislative investigations into the process. Founder Larisa Bolivar About Us The Cannabis Consumers Coalition (registered as CCU) is a federally recognized 501(c)(3) consumer advocacy organization that acts as a consumer watchdog in the cannabis industry. Protecting the consumer is at the heart of what we stand for and we do this by helping to create an ethical cannabis industry through advocacy, activism, education, and policy work. Consumers are who voted for cannabis legalization and it is in our power to ensure that we have an industry that puts consumers’ needs above all else based on sound market research via political and social advocacy. As a membership organization, we work collectively to educate consumers and the general public. The Cannabis Consumers Coalition strives to set industry standards in the areas of public safety, quality control, pricing, pesticide and fertilizer use, labeling, testing, customer service, ethical business practices, consumer rights in the workplace, and any emerging issues impacting cannabis consumers.

  • Than 100 State Legislators Join Coalition to Oppose Troubling Tobacco Tax Scheme
    For Immediate Release: Contact: Ronald J. Leone Tuesday, Sept. 20, 2016 573.864.5189 More than 100 state legislators join coalition to oppose troubling tobacco tax scheme. Jefferson City – A large bipartisan coalition of state representatives and senators from across Missouri are encouraging voters to vote “No” on a controversial constitutional amendment that contains several troubling provisions. Today, a total of 19 state senators and 91 state representatives announced their opposition to Amendment 3 and encouraged their constituents to oppose Big Tobacco's scheme. The overwhelming legislative opposition puts the majority of Missouri lawmakers on the same side as many diverse organizations that have come out against Amendment 3 - including groups that historically supported tobacco taxes. “Whether you’re Democrat or Republican, conservative or liberal, there is something in Amendment 3 for everyone and every group not to like,” said Ronald J. Leone, Executive Director of the Missouri Petroleum Marketers and Convenience Store Association (MPCA). Missouri State Senators Opposing Amendment 3 Sen. Dan Brown, R-Rolla Sen.

In this new post-reform era, WellPoint’s Public Affairs function is more important than ever as the government expands its regulatory scope into our key lines of business. By 2015, almost 66 percent of the company’s revenue will be paid either in part or entirely by the federal and state government. For this reason, we continue to play an active role in the political process through our Public Affairs efforts, industry memberships and WellPAC, our political action committee. More than 1,875 WellPoint associates provided voluntary nancial support to WellPAC in 2012. Their generosity allowed our PAC to make contributions of more than $780,000 to federal campaigns and $140,000 to state and local campaigns on both sides of the political aisle in 2012. Our participation in the political process helps us develop good working relationships with Members of Congress, as well as key state legislators, in order to communicate WellPoint’s perspective on a range of issues including the cost and quality of today’s health care, the establishment of insurance exchanges and the expansion of Medicaid.
