After a failed attempt to decriminalize a short list of psychedelics last year, state Sen. Scott Wiener is reintroducing legislation to make California the third state to legalize psychedelic-assisted therapy for adults. Gov. Gavin Newsom in October vetoed a similar bill, urging state lawmakers to first take steps toward creating regulated treatment guidelines before attempting to decriminalize possession of these drugs.
The organization also facilitates trips for veterans to seek psychedelic therapy in countries such as Mexico where the practice is legal. Veteran groups and researchers say the use of psilocybin can spur breakthroughs in therapy, especially for those who suffer from PTSD and have not seen improvements through traditional medications. According to a report published by the Department of Veteran Affairs, there are an estimated 17 suicides a day among veterans.
