has the inalienable right to go inside their own mind for answers and healing.

We are experiencing simultaneous epidemics of suicide, depression, and addiction in the United States. It is absolutely critical for people to have access to safe catalysts that interrupt negative thought patterns and addictions. In October of 1966, President Lyndon B. Johnson signed an Executive Order which made all psychedelic compounds illegal until they could be studied for safety. Since then, these catalysts have been studied extensively and shown to be extremely safe and non-addictive.

Millions of Americans have safely interacted with psychedelic compounds and report significant enhancements to their mental health. Given our current medical understanding, we are asking the President to immediately sign an Executive Order reversing the 1966 Executive Order. The Mind Army will educate and advocate for the development of best practices for maximizing the psychedelic experience and creating positive outcomes.
