Hawaii Senate Passes Bill To Create Psychedelics Task Force And Study Pathways To Access Psilocybin And MDMA The Hawaii Senate has approved a bill that would create a psychedelics task force responsible for studying and making policy recommendations on providing access to breakthrough therapies such as psilocybin and MDMA. After advancing through the committee process, the full Senate on Friday passed the legislation from Sen. Chris Lee (D) in a unanimous vote of 24-0, sending it to the House of Representatives for consideration. The measure would create a Mental Health Emerging Therapies Task Force that’d be tasked with spending two years reviewing the current scientific literature, supporting additional clinical research and “developing policy recommendations for safe, ethical, and culturally-informed implementation” of a psychedelics therapy program. https://www.marijuanamoment.net/hawaii-senate-passes-bill-to-create-psychedelics-task-force-and-study-pathways-to-access-psilocybin-and-mdma/
