Headquarters: Sacramento, California info@wfwproject.org

  • We must standup against the tyranny of the for profit cannabis industry. Where donations have been cutoff, where the working classes, the sick and disabled have been left out in the cold to suffer as their medicine is over regulated, over taxed and the millionaire class and tech millennials aim to become the next billionaires in a country that values excess money over the lives of those who served. As if the misery that has become Prop 64 for our Veteran community wasn’t bad enough Governor #gavinnewsom orders California’s National Guard to the Emerald Triangle to eliminate the investor classes‘ competition which happens to be the only market serving the vast majority of disabled veterans, not to be called the black market, no longer should it be called the illicit market, we are talking about the Traditional Market, as in those who traditionally put patients first! The for profit market puts patients #deadlast and that needs to end by any means necessary! #wfwp2019 #compassion #veteranwellfareisourmission #wfw #wfwp #weedforwarriors #waronptsd #california #prop64 @sweetleafbayarea #teamcompassion @scott_wiener #weedwarriors #dubnation #semperhighmovement #the1620brand #wfwproject @wfwp_oakland_ @wfwp_sanjose_ @wfwp_sacramento @sean_kiernan_wfwp #video by @semperhighshow #music by @rikrub_media
  • #Repost @sean_kiernan_wfwp ・・・ The irony is rich: Governor Newsom removes California’s National Guard from the border calling it a manufactured crisis”. However, our boys and girls are not going home, they are heading to the Emerald Triangle in Northern California to wage war on unlicensed marijuana grows using the same tired propaganda used for years to justify the militarization of what is so many’s medicine. Instead of prohibition as the reason to send in the troops, Newsom is literally justifying military intervention on a plant because the Tax receipts are too low and the 1% isn’t making outsized profits. If we are going to have a war on an imaginary group, let’s aim the guns away from our own people Gavin! #wfwp #wfwp2019 #wfw #wfwproject NBC: “California Gov. Gavin Newsom vowed Tuesday to crack down on cartel-grown black market marijuana despite questions about the scope of influence Mexican drug rings are having on the nation's top cannabis producing state. Newsom said during his State of the State address that he's pulling 360 of the state's National Guard troops from President Donald Trump's border security deployment, which the governor described as part of a "manufactured crisis." He is directing more than a third of these troops to help target illicit pot cultivators in Northern California. The troops will be "redeploying up north to go after all these illegal cannabis farms, many of which are run by the cartels that are devastating our pristine forests and increasingly themselves becoming fire hazards," Newsom said.”
  • Paying it forward heals. It’s a fine line for many who are only a few unfortunate turns from not having a roof over their heads. Trying to be the catalyst for the change we want to see! #wfwp #wfwp2019 #wfwproject Thank you to the following for their efforts in helping bring happiness and warmth to others, veterans & non-veterans @tamisplace @omgfarms @lovehealxternal @wfwp_sacramento
  • We believe NWA stated it best about the police in a song. #wfwp #wfwproject #wfwp2019 “The New York state association of police unions unanimously opposes Gov. Cuomo’s plans to legalize recreational marijuana, calling it a “money grab,” the group’s president said Wednesday. “We wanted to be on the record that we oppose it because it’s an act of total irresponsibility,” Michael Palladino, the head of the New York State Association of PBAs, said Wednesday. “The Governor and lawmakers are trading public safety for a money grab to plug a budget deficit arising from mismanagement of taxpayer funds. Jeopardizing the public’s safety is not something cops support.”
  • #Repost @sean_kiernan_wfwp ・・・ The War on cannabis in California is in full effect and the owners of our new cannabis industry are demanding a campaign of shock and awe without regard to collateral damage. Why, because war's damage is always isolated to those who have no power in Government or voice in society. The working classes, the sick and disabled and veterans. #wfwp #wfwp2019#wfwproject #wfwc "In October 2018, the California Department of Consumer Affairs’ newly-established Cannabis Enforcement Unit teamed up with the Los Angeles Police Department to carry out a raid on an unlicensed shop in Sylmar, a predominantly Latino and working-class neighborhood in the San Fernando Valley. After serving a search warrant at “One Stop Healers,” the authorities seized more than $2 million worth of cannabis and cannabis products, including almost 500 pounds of flower and 200 pounds of edibles. The shop’s owner was arrested on misdemeanor charges, along with six employees. The seizure, notably, took place ten months after the state had begun allowing the sale and taxation of cannabis for adult use. The end of prohibition, it turns out, has hardly ended illicit cannabis sales. A nascent industry—not to mention local governments eager for tax revenue—is pushing for this kind of rigorous enforcement."
