The cannabis reform movement has a new way to influence lawmakers and policy at every level of government, and the organizers want to hear directly from consumers.
NORML (the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws) has launched its 2025 Cannabis Consumer Survey, inviting people who use cannabis, recreationally or medically, as well as those who do not consume, to share their experiences, concerns, and policy priorities.
The survey takes about 10 to 15 minutes, is confidential, and will be used to shape NORML’s lobbying and advocacy strategy for 2026. Participants who complete the survey before November 15, 2025 at 11:59 PM ET will be entered into a drawing to win a $100 NORML Store gift card.

The cannabis landscape is changing rapidly. More states are legalizing or expanding medical programs. Federal rescheduling is being debated while NORML continues pushing for full descheduling, meaning cannabis would be treated more like alcohol than a controlled substance. Workplace, housing, firearm, and parental rights for cannabis consumers are increasingly contested areas.
“Nobody knows the reality of cannabis laws better than the people directly affected by them,” NORML says. “Your voice helps us advocate more effectively in Congress and in state legislatures.”
The survey explores topics including:
Respondents can also rank what NORML’s top policy priorities should be for 2026.
Public opinion is one of the most powerful drivers in cannabis reform. NORML routinely uses survey data to:
This is not a marketing survey; it is an advocacy tool. If you have been frustrated by cannabis policy, pricing, access, or discrimination, this survey is a direct line to the people working to change it.

Founded in 1970, NORML is the nation’s leading nonprofit dedicated to ending marijuana prohibition and protecting the rights of consumers. NORML has a network of state and local chapters working to legalize cannabis, expand patient access, and push for widespread expungement of past convictions.
You do not have to attend rallies or testify at hearings to shape cannabis law. By taking this survey you make your voice heard.
