In an informative presentation to members of the Phoenix Psychedelic Society, Gary Smith took a deep dive into the current state of licit medical industrial psychedelics.
Giving the audience a peek into hot-button topics, he tackled religious use and exemption, psychedelic exceptionalism and Arizona’s new psilocybin laws.
While the psychedelics landscape continues to evolve, attendees heard from Gary not only about advocacy and changing laws within Arizona, but also about changes taking place in Colorado specific to its new plant medicines law, as well as those in Oregon’s psilocybin program.
A leading cannabis and psychedelics attorney, Gary frequently shares insights with industry publications, organizations and media outlets in Arizona and nationwide. He hosts a popular podcast about psychedelics and the law, and he authored Psychedelica Lex, the preeminent legal manual for psychedelics and entheogens. He also serves as general counsel for the nation’s oldest multiracial peyote church.
