NEW YORK, Feb. 8, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- MadisonJay Solutions LLC announced that Co-Founder and Managing Member Michael Cooper has been named to the National Cannabis Industry Association's Policy Council.
The NCIA is the nation's leading non-profit cannabis trade association, and the Policy Council is the NCIA's internal "think tank" on federal and state cannabis regulation. As the adult-use cannabis reform movement continues to gain momentum at the federal and state levels, these issues—and the Policy Council's role—have only increased in significance. Mr. Cooper also serves as Vice Chair of the NCIA's State Regulations Committee.
NCIA Executive Director Aaron Smith praised Mr. Cooper's appointment to the Policy Council, noting, "It is a privilege to include a graduate of the prestigious Harvard College and Law School in this vital work of the Policy Council. His knowledge and experience from other industries is a valuable asset to the group as we create high-level policy recommendations for our emerging industry."
Mr. Cooper added, "I want to thank the Board of the NCIA for this honor. In such a young industry, crucial questions about how best to regulate cannabis remain unsettled. We believe that the Policy Council provides a crucial voice to help shape those rules. We formed MadisonJay Solutions to help entrepreneurs navigate these evolving regulations, and are excited to contribute to the Policy Council's efforts to improve the efficiency of cannabis regulation and of cannabis markets."
