If you’ve been following cannabis reform at the Capitol you know there were a record breaking 31 cannabis related bills filed. Most are dead. Five criminal justice reform bills, three different testing bills, three card cost bills and two additional cannabis definitions bills (“cannabis definitions” is the technical term for concentrates protections), all dead among the wreckage.
As the legislators finish up their process of working their way through the 1289 bills filed this session, here are some of the highlights so far and some of the bills we’re still watching.
