California Cannabis: Industrial Hemp Regulation Moves Ahead
Last week, California’s industrial hemp bill, SB 1409, received a unanimous passing vote from committee.

Oregon Cannabis Laws: The 2018 Draft Bills Are Here
The Oregon legislative session began on Monday. Because 2018 is an even-numbered calendar year, this session is a short session, lasting just 35 days. That fact hasn’t stopped Oregon democrats from targeting ambitious policy objectives like cap-and-trade, along with a host of other items that will likely not get done. As to cannabis, there won’t
