Link in Bio. ⤴️ Lifelong cannabis warrior William Chengelis—better known as “Wayward Bill”—died in a Colorado hospital on August 7. He was 70 years young. As anybody who’s been part of the cannabis industry for a long time knows—Chengelis was considered a legend. Chengelis served as former chairperson of the U.S. Marijuana Party, among many other roles in cannabis reform. He personally helped legalize adult-use cannabis in Colorado in 2012. He also participated with the ACLU, the Democratic Party, S.A.F.E.R., Sensible Colorado, @natNORML and Coloradans 4 Cannabis Patient Rights. “If you can legally smoke a joint where you live, you can thank Wayward Bill,” said Sharon Ravert, founder of @peachtreenorml. ━━━ More about Wayward Bill and the community's reaction to the news.
