National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws

The National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML) is a nonprofit advocacy group dedicated to changing laws and policies around marijuana. Founded in 1970, its goal is to promote responsible use, legalization, and regulation of cannabis to reduce legal penalties, improve public health, and support individual freedoms. NORML conducts research, educates the public and policymakers, and advocates for reforms at the state and federal levels, aiming to create a legal framework that recognizes marijuana as a regulated substance rather than an illegal drug.
