This Former SEIU Official Wishes You a Happy 4/20 Day



In celebration of 4/20 Day, Tasty thought he’d pass along the news that former SEIU official Tyrone Freeman has apparently developed an expertise in California’s booming marijuana industry.

According to his consulting firm’s website, Freeman would gladly help you with everything from manufacturing and cultivation to dispensary and distribution.

But wait… you better not dawdle. According to his website,

“Act now! Availability is limited.”

Freeman -- a close ally of SEIU President Emeritus Andy Stern and Dave Regan -- has emulated Stern’s entrepreneurial spirit by setting up his own consulting firm called Maven Innovative Consultancy, LLC.

Of course, business comes naturally to Freeman.

During his federal criminal trial, prosecutors revealed how he made multiple secret deals with corrupt insurance companies, consultants and others to illegally divert buckets of workers’ money into his own pocket.

Freeman, whose love of Cuban cigars helped land him in a prison in South Dakota, is apparently hoping a different sort of smokable product will become his “green gold.”

Who knows? Perhaps Stern – who’s become a high-paid consultant for Uber, Airbnb, Handy and other tech companies – will join forces with Freeman to develop a pioneering marijuana app.
