Hi,

After administrative delays forced legalization off of the November ballot, Oklahoma’s governor set a special election for cannabis in March. I’ve got a feeling it will pass but the politics around this are interesting. A March special election will keep some of the most liberal people in the republican-leaning state away from the polls in the general election. Hmmm….

The California Cannabis Industry Association released a white paper decrying unregulated hemp. This also highlights the rivalry forming between licensed cannabis and free-market psychoactive hemp.

Nearly 20 states have constitutions that permit slavery and involuntary servitude in prison. Five states currently have ballot measures looking to change this. I’d like to say that I’m very thankful to the Californian inmates who protect us from forest fires and I think they deserve to be paid a legal wage for their efforts. :)

Thanks and have an impressive week!
