TIL style subject. Read how somebody wanted to throw people out of America for mushroom use, and became curious where it was legal. Surprisingly, Washington, DC has nearly legal magic mushrooms (and mescaline). Since 2020.

Technically "entheogenic plant and fungus" means any plant or fungus of any species in which there is naturally occurring any of: ibogaine, dimethyltryptamine, mescaline, psilocybin, or psilocyn.

The Metropolitan Police Department shall make the investigation and arrest of persons 18 years of age or older for non-commercial planting, cultivating, purchasing, transporting, distributing, engaging in practices with, and/or possessing entheogenic plants and fungi [...] among its lowest enforcement priorities.
Effective: Mar. 16, 2021 "after a 30-day period of Congressional review"
