California is set to consider legalizing 'magic mushrooms' and other psychedelics under the supervision of a licensed therapist. New bipartisan legislation aims to approve this type of therapy to address the state's mental health crisis. Last year, Governor Newsom vetoed legislation that would have decriminalized the possession and personal use of hallucinogens like psychedelic mushrooms. At the same time, though, the governor requested that lawmakers work on therapeutic guidelines for using these substances, under the supervision of a trained and licensed facilitator, which is what this new bill aims to do. "There was nothing I could point to that made me happy," said Army Ranger veteran Jesse Gould, who now runs Heroic Hearts Project. "I knew that something had to change: otherwise I feared the worst at that point."
