Note: Completely removing cannabis from the federal Controlled Substances Act - descheduling - does not require that #marijuana be evaluated, recognized, or classed as a medicine.

But, medicinal evaluation is a requirement of rescheduling…making it somewhat more complicated.

NEW LEGALIZATION NATION They’re going to trash 2,900 unlicensed shops and replace them with what?

🗑 Minnesota officials have reviewed and expunged more than 57,000 low-level marijuana-related convictions, according to data provided by the state. norml.org/news/2024/05/1…

one year ago = through the Panama Canal with a great crew on a 45ft sailing catamaran

after sailing thousands of miles from California we made our transit, an amazing experience

Imo we already have plenty of statutory enforcement power to remove fake weed products from NJ gas stations etc…synthetic cannabinoid bans were passed for K2/Spice years ago, and successfully enforced…still on the books too

Corporate cartel operators broke every promise about medical access.

--Goldstein said it’s been “heartbreaking” to watch legal cannabis in the rest of the country become more affordable as New Jersey’s prices remain high. = me to New Jersey Monitor

Sales in some of America's most expensive regulated cannabis products are - not shockingly - slowing down.

Working class consumers simply can't afford to buy legal in New Jersey yet.

New Jersey consumers are very unhappy that the price of regulated cannabis costs double than other states, or the street.

Industry lobbyists think everything is fine in Nj…but corporate cartels abandon states when competition increases, and prices decline #pricegouging

I lived in Santa Fe for a decade and the border checkpoints/random stops were a constant part of life driving anywhere south of Albuquerque.

Thankfully NM’s state officials are correctly angry over this kind of #cannabis stealing via feds

Why did NJ Democrats attack government transparency and the press in an election year?

Sunset over New Jersey as seen from Manhattan last night.

Back in NYC for Aunt Mary’s knee replacement.

Schedule III = total flop both as a policy and a vote motivator.
#cannabis #marijuana

Pennsylvania:
- Still arresting 35 people for #cannabis possession every day
- No action on the call for state #marijuana clemency from President Biden
- Now, a former tyrant is polling even in Pa. for the presidential election smh

#WinWithCannabis fyi PA House Democrats Governor Josh Shapiro

American doctors have zero whole-plant medicines for 'prescription' use among patients, sadly that is unlikely to change IF #marijuana is moved to Schedule III.

Note - State medical cannabis programs with millions of patients require a doc's “recommendation” not 'prescription.'
