Rick Thompson, Executive Director, NORML of Michigan
Michigan’s oldest and strongest marijuana consumer advocacy organization has elected new Board members and appointed a new Executive Director.
The new Executive Director at NORML of Michigan is Rick Thompson, a longtime cannabis law reform and social justice advocate with a national profile. He appears weekly on the Jazz Cabbage Café television program; is co-host of Four20Post, a business-centric podcast; and performs ‘The Michigan Report’ for Weed Talk News, broadcast on the ROKU television networks. Thompson has been a Board member for five years. He replaces attorney Matthew Abel, who served ten years as Executive Director and has now retired from the Board.
“Our mission is clear,” Thompson said. “Protect the rights and privileges cannabis consumers currently have in Michigan. Expand protections whenever possible. Network with other like-minded organizations to accomplish these goals.”
