According to a study from Cambridge University, slacking stoners is a FALSE stereotype! But while weed is not linked to lack of motivation, greater use was associated with a lower perceived value of school by adolescents. 

If you’re flying into a New York airport, you’ll be happy to find cops won’t seize your secret stash. But if TSA stumbles across it, they are still required to alert the appropriate law enforcement.

There’s a new lawsuit over Utah’s cannabiz licensing procedure claiming out-of-state companies were given preference during the application process. The state’s Department of Agriculture and Food coached multistate growers, then changed the laws last minute to allow out-of-state companies to apply which potentially gave them a huge advantage thanks to the aforementioned networking opportunity.

Listeners of No Agenda and Bowl After Bowl won’t be surprised to hear Amazon is officially a registered cannabis lobbyist. Last year, the company spent $17.9 million on lobbying alone. Activists at DPA and NORML confirmed representatives met with them to discuss the best ways to free the weed.

During discussion of the cocaine resentencing bill, the EQUAL Act, Representative Steve Cohen turned the House Judiciary Committee’s attention to the failure of the War on Drugs, using Sha’Carri Richardson’s Olympic suspension as an example, saying, “Marijuana is not a performance-enhancing drug unless you’re entered in the Coney Island hot dog eating contest on Fourth of July.”

After companies applying for medical marijuana licenses were allowed to redact their own applications, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court ruled in favor of investigative journalist Wallace McKelvey of PennLive and The Patriot-News. The burden now falls on the Department of Health.

An Interpretive Statement was released by the Washington State Liquor and Cannabis Board saying licensed processors cannot convert CBD into delta-9 THC, which would undermine growers. Since this is not law, it remains to be seen whether it is actually enforced.

The US House of Representatives could vote on the Blumenauer-McClintock-Norton-Lee amendment as soon as next week, removing the word “medical” from the current spending bill language maintaining that federal funds cannot be used to prevent states from “implementing their own state laws that authorize the use, distribution, possession, or cultivation of medical marijuana.”

A Florida businessman was ordered to pay nearly $3 million to the SEC after scamming $5.5 million from more than 60 weed investors and spending it on himself.

Also in the Land of Enchantment, the New Mexico appellate court upheld a 2018 lower court ruling allowing the state’s largest medical marijuana operator to open two new dispensaries.

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, Senate Finance Committee Chairman Ron Wyden, and Senator Cory Booker are holding a press conference tomorrow (Wednesday, July 14, 2021) to unveil a preliminary version of a bill being referred to by journalists as the Cannabis Administration and Opportunity Act . It is expected to remove cannabis from the Controlled Substances Act, impose a federal tax on the herb and bring about restorative justice to communities affected by the War on Drugs while allowing states largely in control of how to approach legalization.

Last week, the Cannabis Freedom Alliance backed by Charles Koch, Snoop Dogg, and Weldon Angelos (as previously discussed on Bowl After Bowl Episode 76: Thanks Your Old Pass) released a white paper urging removal of cannabis from the Schedule I classification under the Controlled Substances Act.

Last Wednesday (July 7, 2021) the Nevada State Athletic Commission joined the Florida State Boxing Commission after voting to no longer discipline fighters for using cannabis.

The new policy begins tomorrow and is not retroactive.

The billboard was taken down after the brand received a cease-and-desist letter but Cohen is still seeking statutory damages, actual damages, punitive damages, and disgorgement of profits attributable to the billboard.

88,000 cases have been vacated or dismissed following the decriminalization of marijuana in New Jersey.

Grower-to-bowl sales will begin in California, bypassing dispensaries. States with home delivery will likely join in as it allows customers to peruse a grower’s full catalog and helps the grower test new products while gathering consumer trend data.

A lawsuit over spam text messages between two consumers and Eaze reached a settlement. It’s the second lawsuit of this type that Eaze has faced. The first suit was filed in 2018 and sent to arbitration. This one was pending on a Supreme Court case regarding Facebook and auto-dialing telephone systems, where it was unanimously ruled that random or sequential number generators must be used. One plaintiff signed up for texts from Eaze while the other received messages becuase of a third-party error.

In Oklahoma, Senator Jim Inhofe has requested $4 million in federal funds to create a Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs sponsored by the Department of Justice to work with sheriffs’ departments and combat the black market.

Missouri Governor Mike Parson vetoed legislation last Friday (July 9, 2021) which would have allowed medical marijuana companies to deduct business expenses on their taxes, saying the decision came down to a section lawmakers included in the bill which would have provided tax relief to businesses impacted by city-or county-wide public health restrictions.

Sha’Carri Richardson will not be competing in the Olympics because of a THC positive drug test. She is serving a one-month suspension.

Hours before it was scheduled for a House floor vote, Delaware adult use bill, House Bill 150, was removed from the agenda. The bill’s primary sponsor, Representative Ed Osienski, said the vote was cancelled because they did not have the 3/4 (31) votes necessary to pass it with its proposed social equity fund. Had they removed the fund, they would only need a 3/5 majority. Delaware’s earliest opportunity for legalization is January 2022. In 2015, a decriminalization bill passed and another bill expanded it to minors in 2019, but folks are still being arrested and locked up when caught with more than an ounce.

Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf signed House Bill 1024 into law, increasing the amount of pot medical patients can legally possess from a 30-day supply to 90.

As of July 1st, South Dakota patients will no longer be arrested for possessing three ounces or less of cannabis…as long as they alert the law enforcement officer of their condition and provide documentation from a doctor since they won’t be able to get a card until this fall.
