  • In this podcast episode, we explore the pivotal role marijuana policy will play in the 2024 U.S. elections, with multiple states set to vote on legalization measures. Here's a breakdown of where cannabis is on the ballot, what each initiative proposes, and the latest polling data. Statewide Ballot Measures: Florida - Amendment 3 aims to legalize recreational marijuana for adults 21+. It allows possession of up to three ounces of cannabis and five grams of concentrate. Recent polls suggest strong support, with over 60% of voters likely to approve, clearing the supermajority threshold required for a constitutional amendment THE MARIJUANA HERALD BALLOTPEDIA NEWS . North Dakota - Measure 5 proposes legalizing recreational use for adults, permitting possession of up to one ounce of marijuana, along with limits for concentrates and edibles. Individuals could also grow a few plants at home. However, the state has previously rejected similar initiatives in 2018 and 2022, making this a crucial third attempt BALLOTPEDIA NEWS . South Dakota - Measure 29 revisits recreational legalization, allowing up to two ounces of possession and home cultivation. Although voters approved legalization in 2020, it was overturned by the courts. Polls currently show a tight race, with about 45% in favor and 42% against, indicating a highly contentious battle . Nebraska - Voters will decide on two medical marijuana initiatives aimed at providing legal protections for patients and establishing a regulatory framework. Support for these measures appears high, with recent polling showing around 70% approval . Arkansas - The state will consider expanding its medical marijuana program, including home cultivation rights and expanded eligibility for medical conditions. If passed, it would allow patients to grow up to seven mature and seven immature plants Local Measures in Texas: Several cities in Texas, including Dallas, Lockhart, and Bastrop, have placed marijuana decriminalization initiatives on their ballots. These measures would reduce penalties for possession, treating minor infractions more like a traffic ticket rather than a criminal offense. Similar efforts in other Texas cities have faced legal challenges, but some have successfully stood up to state opposition Conclusion: The 2024 elections could mark a significant shift in marijuana legislation across the U.S., with potential impacts on both state and local levels. Whether you're a business owner, advocate, or just interested in cannabis policy, these votes are crucial to watch. Tune in for a detailed discussion on each state, the implications of these measures, and our predictions based on current polling trends.

  • IT'S A NO FOR ARKANSAS The Arkansas Supreme Court has ruled that votes on a proposed amendment to legalize recreational marijuana will not be counted in the November election. The court found that the proposal didn't meet legal requirements for ballot inclusion. Despite voters seeing it on their ballots, the results won't be tabulated. Supporters of the measure expressed disappointment, citing lost opportunity, while opponents welcomed the decision, highlighting potential public health concerns. Do you think this is fair?

  • In this video, we break down Vice President Kamala Harris’s comments on the slow progress of reclassifying marijuana and how working with the DEA has caused delays. Harris explains the process of reducing the harm classification of cannabis and discusses the broader efforts around criminal justice reform. Key points discussed: Potential Rescheduling to Schedule III: The DEA is considering moving cannabis from Schedule I to Schedule III, which could significantly change federal cannabis policy and open up new research opportunities. Impact on Cannabis Businesses: Rescheduling could remove barriers for legal cannabis businesses, allowing them to deduct expenses under tax code 280E, helping to boost the industry. Political Timing and Future Implications: The decision may not happen until 2024, raising questions about the political timing and the impact of upcoming elections.
