🚨 LABOR DAY UPDATE! 🇺🇸🍔🌭

Apparently Monday is Labor Day and I completely forgot 😂😂 so Willie’s Wellness Center will be CLOSED Monday!

I’ll still be around getting some behind-the-scenes work done because apparently I don’t know how to take a day off 🤣 BUT our employees absolutely deserve a day to fire up the grill, eat too much food, relax, and enjoy some time with their families. ❤️

AND since I’ll be working anyway… 👀

🎟️ I’ll finally be doing the drawing for our voting giveaway! 🎉💰

Thank y’all again for voting, sharing, supporting us, and helping keep Willie’s Wellness in the running year after year. Y’all really show out for us and we appreciate it more than you know! 💚

Enjoy Labor Day, don’t burn the burgers, and don’t drink all the beer before the food is done 😂

🚪 We’ll be back OPEN TUESDAY at 11 AM!

See y’all Tuesday! 🇺🇸💚

FROM THE CSBA

The Honorable Judge Robert S. Ballou of the Western District of Virginia Roanoke Division acknowledged the “complications and unintended consequences that rushed legislation creates.” His opinion also noted that HB 30 “was not adopted through the usual legislative process.”

And the consequences are very real.

The Court found that HB 30 will cause “substantial economic harm,” with businesses facing losses of tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars—and some potentially becoming “no longer financially viable.”

Those are the Court's findings.

This is our position as the Cannabis Small Business Association: Virginia's elected officials owe their constituents answers.

Why was legislation with consequences this severe rushed through outside the usual legislative process?

Why were compliant Virginia small businesses—businesses that created jobs, paid taxes, followed the rules, and repeatedly adapted to changing regulations—given roughly seven weeks to absorb a potentially devastating change?

Why were the voices filling legislators' inboxes not enough?

And why is Virginia dismantling an existing h**p marketplace while the very same legislation creates the framework for a recreational ma*****na marketplace?

Consumers should be allowed to choose where they shop and whom they trust—not have that decision made for them in Richmond.

NOW WE NEED YOU.
Do not let this end with a court ruling. Contact your Virginia legislators and demand answers.

We're calling on our supporters to demand that Virginia's elected officials convene a Special Session and address the rushed, contradictory legislation that has devastated small businesses and livelihoods across the Commonwealth.

We've made contacting your representatives simple.

Send this link to ALL YOUR CUSTOMERS TONIGHT.. We need you now! csbassociation.com/take-action

It takes less than five minutes to make an impact. Make your voices heard NOW:

Explain the rush.
Explain the process.
Explain the hypocrisy.
And call a Special Session.

Small businesses played by the rules. Virginians made their voices heard. Now Richmond needs to answer them.

WE'RE NOT QUITTING—BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT.

🚨🏆 IT’S GO TIME! WE NEED YOUR HELP! 🏆🚨

For the 4TH YEAR IN A ROW, Willie’s Wellness Center has been nominated for Richmond Times-Dispatch’s Best of Richmond, and we’re asking our amazing community to help us finish this chapter the same way we started it… on top! 💚

With the changes coming to Virginia’s h**p industry, this will likely be our final year competing as a CBD dispensary. What a journey it’s been—from our very first nomination to now having the opportunity to bring home one last title as a h**p shop.

And with a little luck, next year we’ll be back competing as a licensed THC dispensary. 🌿

If we’ve ever helped you, educated you, or earned your trust, we’d truly appreciate your support one more time.
