Washington’s Psilocybin Bill Stalls—But the Movement Isn’t Stopping

Washington state isn’t ready—yet—for legal psilocybin therapy. Lawmakers have delayed a bill that would have created a medical framework for psilocybin treatment, but this is just another step in the journey.

According to Wenatchee World, concerns over regulation and implementation led to hesitation, but public support for psilocybin therapy is at an all-time high. As Oregon and Colorado move forward with their programs, it’s clear that the conversation around psilocybin is shifting—from “if” to “when.”

🔬 Key Takeaways from the Decision:

• Washington lawmakers postponed psilocybin legislation but signaled continued discussion.
• Growing clinical evidence supports psilocybin’s benefits for depression, PTSD, and anxiety.
• Oregon and Colorado’s programs are setting precedents that Washington may soon follow.
• Advocacy matters—public demand and education will shape future policy.

At Black Forest Mushrooms, we see this not as a loss, but as a call to action. Science is moving forward, and it’s up to all of us to keep the momentum going. Public education, advocacy, and continued research will lay the foundation for responsible legalization.

This isn’t the end—it’s just the beginning of the next chapter.
