A Evan Low (D - CA) LEGALIZE, TAX, AND REGULATE

Young, openly gay, progressive Democratic legislator who has been a vocal supporter on LGBTQ rights and cannabis issues in the state assembly. Sponsored AJR 27 calling on President Trump to leave legal cannabis industry alone.   

As chair of the Assembly Business and Professions committee, Low was supportive of cannabis bills. 

In 2016, he co-authored AB 2740 to establish a 5 ng/ml per se standard for THC, criminalizing drivers with that amount in their blood, contrary to science and Cal NORML's objections. In 2017, he co-authored another bill that would have made smoking while driving an alternative misdemeanor or infraction. (Both bills failed.)
