‘Sen. Collins urges FBI to step up fight against illegal marijuana grows’ Via @WGME Maybe start with ending federal cannabis prohibition and allowing banking for legal businesses? @SenatorCollins



It’s time to puff, puff, pass the bill. As Co-Chair of the Congressional Cannabis Caucus, I am working with the Cannabis Unity Coalition to decriminalize marijuana as a dangerous drug. The federal government needs to catch up to the states. @NORML @DrugPolicyOrg @lastprisonerprj @NCIAorg

Why are deep-red states starting to move on cannabis? Hirsh Jain @anandastrategy explains why places like Kentucky and Appalachia are making progress by reframing cannabis as a healthcare issue instead of a political one, and why that shift is driving real change in places many investors and policymakers overlooked. One of the biggest under-the-radar shifts happening in cannabis right now.



Here are the top 5 changes coming to the Georgia medical cannabis program: 1) THC Limits: 5% Cap Eliminated → 12,000 mg Total THC Possession Limit 2) New Delivery Method: Vaporization (Vaping) Now Allowed - Old rule: Only oils, tinctures, capsules, lozenges, topicals, and patches were permitted. Inhalation was banned. - New rule: Patients 21 and older may now vaporize medical cannabis (including vape cartridges and flower/leaf for home vaporization). 3) Expanded Qualifying Conditions - New conditions added: Lupus, severe arthritis, and severe insomnia. - Broader access to existing conditions: Removes the old requirement that many diagnoses (e.g., cancer, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, etc.) must be “severe or end-stage.” Patients can now qualify earlier in their diagnosis 4) Registry Cards & Other Practical Improvements - Patient registry cards are now valid for 5 years (most patients still need annual physician certification; those with incurable/irreversible conditions are exempt from yearly recertification). - Lawful possession is explicitly excluded from the Georgia Controlled Substances Act, with clarified criminal penalties that reduce risk for compliant patients. 5) Expands recognition of out-of-state medical cannabis cards for visitors to Georgia - It explicitly adds language protecting “out-of-state registered patient[s]” who possess medical cannabis compliant with Georgia’s new rules (the 12,000 mg total THC possession limit, etc.). In addition, the Georgia Board of Pharmacy had approved medical cannabis dispensation for the low-THC program under independent pharmacy licenses back in 2023. Over 100+ pharmacies signed up. The DEA put the brakes on pharmacy point-of-sale due to cannabis being schedule 1. Since state-legal marijuana is now moved to schedule 3, expect the pharmacy retail fulfillment of medical cannabis in Georgia to move forward, enabling access to patients state-wide without the need to build additional dispensaries. @Storycannabis






Posting cannabis content on social media has turned into a weird game of digital survival: Say too much? Flagged. Show too much? Buried. Use the wrong word? Good luck with that reach. So @hernanpanessi talked to the people who’ve mastered the art of posting without getting shadowbanned into oblivion. Basically? if the algorithm learns your code, invent a new one. hightimes.com/culture/ninja-…
