Cannabis - It's Time Time To Decriminalize and Legalize At Federal Level

Cannabis companies in the U.S. lack access to banking and other financial services because the drug is federally illegal. That could change through new legislation or thanks to broader legalization efforts backed by the Democratically-controlled Senate. Photo Illustration: Laura Kammermann

  All the bogus claims of the United States government about the dangers of canabis iuse continue to fall apart. Toronto, Canada :  Policies legalizing the use and sale of cannabis products have not led to an increase in marijuana-related hospitalizations, according to  data  published in the  Journal of Addictive Diseases . Canadian investigators tracked rates of cannabis-related hospitalizations in Alberta in the years prior to and following legalization. Canadian lawmakers  legalized  the use and sale of cannabis flowers for those ages 18 and older in October 2018. Retailers began engaging in the sales of cannabis concentrates and edible products in 2020. Researchers identified an increase in hospitalizations among those ages 18 to 24 in the period immediately prior to legalization, but they acknowledged that there were no increases in hospitalizations following legalization among representatives of any age group.  “Legalization was not signifi...

  NORML - Legislation is pending in Congress,  H.R. 7094  and  S. 3671 , to prevent cannabis consumers and their families from being denied access to federally-funded housing. Under current federal law, people who use marijuana – including those who do so in compliance with state laws – are ineligible for placement in federally-funded housing. Others who are already residing in subsidized housing can be evicted, even if their use is not bothering their neighbors. Every day, we at NORML hear from people who are getting kicked out on the street because of this discriminatory federal policy. Many of these people depend on marijuana to treat medical conditions. These policies often lead to entire families being evicted from federal housing, and result in higher citation and arrest rates for public consumption in marginalized communities. More than half of all Americans live in states where marijuana is legal for adults. It is cruel and unjust to punish the most vulnera...
