This week we look at the latest developments in the Senate as the infrastructure bill includes provisions that aim to allow researchers to study the actual marijuana that consumers are purchasing from state-legal dispensaries instead of relying on government-grown cannabis. And then we’ll take a look at some recent announcements from the White House as the Drug Czar’s office is now funding research to support “evidence-based” State Drug Policies and Laws.  And finally we’ll look at why the Biden administration says cannabis prisoners should be free, but is preparing to send some back behind bars after offering them an early compassionate release due to COVID. 


We’ll be discussing all these stories and more on the BEST cannabis podcast in the business...


As we like to say around here, “Everyone knows what happened in marijuana today, but you need to know what’s happening in Marijuana Tomorrow!” ----more----
