Here are some organizations that are also talking about the cannabis on the holiday:

Leadership Conference of Civil and Human Rights:

On #420day, we have to remember this: Our nation needs a comprehensive, broad, and bold approach to marijuana reform to address the decades of harm faced by communities of color and low-income communities due to failed marijuana policies.

We won’t stop fighting until it happens.

— The Leadership Conference (@civilrightsorg) April 20, 2020

Competitive Enterprise Institute:

Apparently today, 4/20, is some sort of unofficial "marijuana day." Here is a supherb piece from @AdamsJMatthew that goes into the weeds on how Congress can fix the budding legal marijuana banking problem. It really must be a joint House/Senate effort. https://t.co/HnlvRMjD2W

— Competitive Enterprise Institute (@ceidotorg) April 20, 2020

National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, a federal agency: 

It’s 420. Today and every day, make the safe choice – if you need to drive to get essentials – don’t drive impaired. If you feel different, you drive different. #ImpairedDriving #420 pic.twitter.com/mIB5P7e8vN

PETA:

Planned Parenthood:

"Does marijuana affect how well birth control works?" Get the answer: https://t.co/EeJ4xy7OIQ

— Planned Parenthood (@PPFA) April 20, 2020

ACLU also released a report on Monday, examining the ongoing racial disparities in marijuana enforcement across the U.S., including in states where it’s legal for recreational or medical purposes.

NEW: Today we released a new report showing that in the United States, a Black person is 3.6x more likely to get arrested for marijuana possession than a white person. #420day https://t.co/j8iRvYgSCc

— ACLU (@ACLU) April 20, 2020

It’s past time that we not just legalize marijuana, but do so in a way that tackles racial disparities head-on.

The MORE Act will do just that.

This #420day, tell your representatives to pass the most comprehensive marijuana reform bill in Congress. https://t.co/SD9sOaMExT
