California legislators will be voting this week on a bill that could majorly impact the state’s cannabis businesses. Findings from a study conducted by the American Medical Association defied a common cannabis prohibitionist argument regarding youth.

It’s an exciting time for California cannabis companies. After years of deliberation, California Legislature is set to conduct its final vote this week on Assembly Bill 45, a bill that could have massive ramifications on the structure and regulations surrounding hemp sales in the state.

According to MoCannTrade, analysts are expecting the sector to flourish further with the addition of several thousand more jobs throughout the next year of operation.
