In this explosive episode of The Ohio Cannabis Report, we peel back the curtain on OhCann, the powerful lobbying arm of Ohio’s cannabis industry. While the people of Ohio voted for a more inclusive and accessible cannabis market, OhCann is working behind the scenes against that very will—prioritizing big business profits over patients, consumers, and the communities most harmed by the War on Drugs.

We break down OhCann’s own words, where they openly state their mission is to serve business interests, not patients. But who benefits when access is restricted and local, Black, and legacy growers are left out of the conversation?

Tune in as we dive deep into:

Who is behind OhCann?

How their lobbying efforts threaten equity and justice in Ohio’s cannabis industry.
