Michigan activists rallied at the state Capitol on Tuesday to support the decriminalization of psilocybin mushrooms and other entheogenic plants.
The Michigan Initiative for Community Healing and Decriminalize Nature Michigan hosted the rally from 11:11 a.m. to 2:22 p.m. at the Capitol Building in Lansing to spread awareness about natural psychedelics and put pressure on lawmakers ahead of the midterm elections in November.
“We believe in for the people, by the people, and acknowledge that nature’s law is higher than man’s law,” the groups said on Facebook. “We also wish to lead our state into policy founded in compassion, equity, inclusion and common sense. Our campaign focuses on four key points: entheogenic freedom, social justice, cognitive liberty and reconnecting with nature.”
At the rally, the groups also launched a get-out-the-vote campaign to back candidates who support decriminalization.
