About the Cannabis Industry Alliance of Oregon
The Cannabis Industry Alliance of Oregon (CIAO) is a powerful coalition formed by the merger of Oregon’s leading cannabis trade associations. As a member-driven non-profit, we advocate for over 500 cannabis licenses and ancillary businesses statewide. Our mission is to foster a respected and prosperous legal cannabis industry through strategic lobbying and policy advocacy. CIAO is committed to empowering cannabis business owners to take control of their future and define what this industry should be.
CIAO, along with its four founding organizations (OCA, OIPA, ORCA, Farms Inc.), has proven time and again that when the cannabis industry unites, we can achieve meaningful policy reforms. As our industry faces massive challenges and a constantly evolving regulatory landscape, it’s vital for us to stand together. We believe that the future of our industry should be shaped by those who live and breathe it every day—not by politicians or prohibitionists.

CALL TO ACTION
Stop the Break-Ins Petition
If you work in Oregon’s cannabis industry, you already know what’s happening. The break-ins. The smash-and-grabs. The armed robberies. Businesses are getting hit hard, over and over. Property is being destroyed. Employees are being traumatized. And some shops, processors, and farms simply won’t make it back.
Aspergillus: Truth behind the data
New research highlights critical gaps in how Aspergillus contamination is regulated in cannabis. Evidence shows that current one-size-fits-all microbial testing laws may unnecessarily restrict access to medicine—especially for immunocompromised patients who rely on clean, lab-tested cannabis.
