We are a group of cannabis activists who believe in the properties of the plant and stand for the social justice that legalization can bring.
Thomas Howard started activism against prohibition over 10 years ago, under the pen name Hoam Rogh, in order to start the conversation about schedule I cannabis being unconstitutional while practicing as a lawyer when being associated with the plant was taboo.
Miguel a.k.a Miggy420 collected signatures for Prop. 215 as a young activist. After that, he went on to serve 10 years in the Navy. After the military, he has devoted his off time to creating the cannabis conversation and helping those in need.

Cannabis Legalization News partnerships
Sponsor the cannabis conversation operators actually use.
CLN does not sell generic logo slots. We build custom sponsor partnerships for brands, platforms, service providers, advocacy groups, and operators that need trust with cannabis decision-makers.
Built for education, credibility, and compliant cannabis storytelling.
Cannabis Legalization News reaches a hard-to-reach audience: people who care about the law, licensing, taxes, policy, dispensary operations, social equity, hemp, rescheduling, and what it actually takes to run a cannabis business. A good sponsor is not just buying impressions. A good sponsor is joining the conversation with a useful point of view.
Sponsorships are custom because the audience is mixed: cannabis operators, attorneys, investors, policymakers, activists, patients, consumers, and service providers all come to CLN for different reasons. Your offer should fit the segment you actually want to reach.
Partnerships we can build.
The examples below are starting points, not fixed packages. Every proposal is shaped around your goal, market, timeline, compliance limits, and what would genuinely help the CLN audience.
Presented-by series
A recurring segment or show arc built around a category, such as dispensary operations, compliance, retail technology, banking, insurance, tax, licensing, or policy reform.
Operator education
Practical behind-the-scenes content showing how cannabis businesses solve real problems: menus, inventory, POS, launch operations, staff workflows, customer experience, or compliance.
Thought leadership
Expert interviews, policy explainers, live Q&A, or analysis segments that help the market understand a complex issue without turning the episode into a commercial.
Launch support
A campaign around a product release, new market, event, report, acquisition, public policy effort, or operator initiative that needs education before conversion.
Lead generation
A content-driven landing page, resource download, webinar, or inquiry flow that gives prospects a reason to raise their hand beyond clicking a logo.
In-kind partnerships
Service credits, technology access, event support, research support, or production support can be structured when the value exchange is clear and disclosed.
What a sponsor can receive.
Media placements
- Host-read sponsor acknowledgement on podcast and YouTube episodes.
- Recurring segment naming rights where the editorial fit is strong.
- Video description links and clearly disclosed sponsor copy.
