Скачать или смотреть Texas Regulators Are Banning Hemp (While Democrats Vote to Legalize It)

In Texas, cannabis policy is moving in two completely opposite directions. Voters overwhelmingly approved a marijuana legalization ballot measure in one community, while state regulators are proposing rules that could effectively ban smokeable hemp products by counting THCA as THC.

The Supreme Court may be about to upend one of the strangest federal cannabis laws still on the books: the rule that marijuana users cannot legally own firearms.

Two major cases this week suggest the justices are deeply skeptical of the federal ban — potentially opening the door for cannabis consumers to legally exercise Second Amendment rights.
