Days after the Drug Enforcement Administration agreed to reclassify cannabis under federal law, the march toward country-wide legalization continues.
With cannabis rescheduling paving the way for new research and financial opportunities in the industry, it seems this reform has also opened doors for more massive changes. The Cannabis Administration and Opportunity Act was reintroduced this week by 18 Democratic Senators, including Sen. Cory Booker, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, and Sen. Ron Wyden. The bill aims to legalize marijuana nationwide, reflecting a historic shift in public opinion and federal restrictions.
The Cannabis Administration and Opportunity Act (CAOA) would remove cannabis from the Controlled Substances Act (CSA), ending the criminal prohibition of marijuana at the federal level and allowing the states to adopt their own laws to regulate the drug.

We here in the U.S. are often only blissfully aware of our own cannabis culture, products, and laws. Despite our country’s current excellence in breeding and advancing cannabis cultivars and culture, the world of weed isn’t just centered around what we do here. Different countries, even different continents, have their own traditions, norms, and styles…
Professionals administer nitrous oxide (N₂O) as an anesthetic, but people also inhale it recreationally for a brief, disorienting high. The short durations of this dissociative experience spur repeated uses, easily leading to abuse. Nitrous may be fun in the moment, but some pretty bad health issues present themselves not long after. Why Do People…
Cannabis flower is potent, but it’s far from the herb’s final or most powerful form. That honor goes to cannabis concentrates, which you can find in various forms and flavors.
