420 with CNW — An Overview of CBD Patches Used for Pain

Cannabidiol, a nonpsychoactive cannabinoid produced by hemp and cannabis, has been receiving plenty of mainstream attention lately because of its supposed medicinal properties.

Several studies, most of them on animals, have found that CBD can treat pain caused by numerous medical conditions.

420 with CNW — House Committee Backs Using Drones for Identifying Illicit Marijuana Grows

More than a decade after launching a state-legal cannabis industry, America's illicit cannabis market is still going strong. One of the objectives of legalizing marijuana was to draw clientele away from the black market and deprive the criminal organizations behind it of revenue from cannabis sales, but most states have failed to do major damage to illicit cannabis sales. To add insult to injury, a large percentage of illegal marijuana is grown on public land, and since cannabis is a water-intensive plant, these illegal grows tend to steal a lot of water as well. In a bid to curb the…

420 with CNW — House Committee Witness Urges Legislators to Make Bipartisan Visits to Cannabis Businesses

The legalization of cannabis has become popular in America, with 18 states having legalized the recreational use of the herb and another 13 decriminalizing its use. However, while Congress is still in disagreement about the herb, a recent visit from an investigative reporter may help move things along. Amanda Ripley, the witness who graced a House Committee hearing, suggested visits to cannabis businesses by ideologically opposed legislators. Similar visits have happened in Canada, when MP Garnett Genius and Nathaniel Erskine-Smith visited a major producer of cannabis in 2017. This came right before the country legalized the herb for recreational use…

420 with CNW — Cannabis Legalization Creates Boom for Veterans as Security Guards

America's state-legal cannabis industry has achieved quite a lot in a little over a decade. Generating billions of dollars in revenue, it has created hundreds of thousands of new job opportunities and provided states with millions in tax revenue. The industry is projected to grow even larger as it matures and more states join; one group of people who are poised to benefit from the cannabis legalization boom are military veterans. Cannabis' federal classification as a Schedule I regulated substance has prevented banks and credit card processors from working with businesses in the cannabis space. This has forced these companies…

420 with CNW — Congress Gears Up to Consider Spending Bills Touching on Marijuana, CBD and Hemp

Just a day after the House Appropriations Committee released a report urging federal agencies to reconsider firing employees for past cannabis use, several cannabis and hemp-related spending bills have advanced in Congress. As the 2022 midterms approach, Democrats have limited time to advance cannabis legislation before the Republican Party challenges their tenuous hold on Congress. If these bills are successful, they could have far-reaching effects on the cannabis and hemp industries. For starters, the House Appropriations Committee approved a bill with an attached report acknowledging clarification from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (“VA”) that veterans who work in the…

420 with CNW — Study Finds That Marijuana Possesses Strain-Specific Effect on Driving Performance

A recent study has found that drivers who consume marijuana may not perform or feel impaired. The study found that, instead, drivers who used marijuana would sometimes experience a positive effect on their driving. This comes at a time when policy makers are working to decide whether driving while under the influence of marijuana warrants similar penalties to driving while under the influence of alcohol in various states across the country. Under the law, impairment is defined as a state of diminished or weakened function. In many states, the legal limit for blood–alcohol content is 0.08. It is known that…
