"Frey's Executive Order Shifts Focus Away from Enforcing Select Psychedelics"

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey has issued an executive order instructing all city departments, including law enforcement, to deprioritize the enforcement of entheogenic plants, commonly known as psychedelics. The order states that the arrest or investigation of individuals involved in the planting, distribution, or use of these substances should be the lowest law enforcement priority. The order highlights the potential health benefits of entheogenic plants for conditions such as depression, anxiety, and substance abuse. It also acknowledges the protected religious practices of certain groups. The order does not legalize unlawful activities related to these substances.
