Andrew Sacks is  involved with medical marijuana and industrial hemp law formation, regulation, and updates in Pennsylvania, and he is often considered the leading legal professional in the state for these matters. In 2015, he was selected by the American Trade Association for Cannabis and Hemp (ATACH) as the only lawyer to serve on their State Level Coalition. He has since worked extensively with the association to promote fair laws surrounding medical marijuana, cannabis, and hemp, focusing largely on how lawyers can advocate legally for people working within those industries. He has spoken at several seminars, including those for theMarijuana Policy Project (MPP), the Pennsylvania Canna-Business Seminar, and the Pennsylvania Bar Association. Mr. Sacks has personally lobbied state senators in conjunction with ATACH (The American Trade Association for Cannabis and Hemp) to move Pennsylvania’s medical marijuana regulations forward. His efforts have helped Pennsylvania create the medical marijuana program currently in formation. He played an integral part in founding the Pennsylvania and Philadelphia Bar Associations’ Medical Marijuana and Hemp Law Committees and in helping the Pennsylvania Bar Association gain an understanding of the complexities inherent to medical marijuana law. He is now the co-chair of the Pennsylvania Bar Association Medical Marijuana and Hemp Law Committee (appointed by Pennsylvania Bar Association President Sara Austin), as well as the Philadelphia Bar Association Business Law Section: Medical Marijuana and Hemp Committee. But perhaps his best contribution was to get the National Lupus Organization to recognize the benefits of medical marijuana and to change its policy to reflect it.
