Hi,

The Cannabis Regulators Association and others urge Congress to adjust hemp and cannabinoid laws in the 2023 Farm Bill, addressing challenges from the 2018 version. They aim to redefine hemp's federal classification and revise regulations on hemp-derived cannabinoids. A study conducted at Stanford revealed that 17% of caregivers for children with cerebral palsy incorporate CBD into their patients’ care routines, primarily to address symptoms such as spasticity and anxiety. Most respondents reported experiencing no adverse effects, implying the potential therapeutic advantages of CBD for these young patients.

Feel like some tabloid drama? A while ago, we reported on Utah mom, Kouri Richins, who was charged with poisoning and killing her husband with fentanyl. He claimed she tried to poison him once before. This week, guards found a suspicious letter in her jail cell seemingly recommending that her brother testify that her ex was looking to procure fentanyl from Mexico. She claims it was from a fictional book she was writing. Or maybe she's aiming for the mystery genre with a touch of autobiography? Regardless, I've got a feeling this case will be turned into a made-for-TV movie eventually. ;)

Have a pleasant week!
