  • DEA Stacks Hearing Against Cannabis Industry—Here's What Happens Next
    Jun 29 2026

    Tomorrow morning, the DEA opens one of the biggest cannabis hearings in federal history — and somehow the witness table is packed with prohibitionists while the cannabis industry gets zero seats.

    This week on Cannabis Legalization News, we break down the June 29 DEA marijuana rescheduling hearing, the one-sided panel, the lack of livestream access, and why the administrative record built over the next two weeks could shape the future of Schedule III.

    We also cover:

    The Trump White House asking Congress to save hemp before the November ban

    SAFE Banking coming back in both the Senate and House

    The U.S. Census Bureau tracking nearly $15 billion in state cannabis tax revenue

    California dropping $227 million to fight illegal grows

    Congress moving to let the Air Force and Marines accept cannabis-positive recruits

    The EDUCATE Act and federal cannabis scholarships for HBCUs and Hispanic-serving schools

    Guam issuing its first cannabis permit seven years after legalization

    Hawaii’s hemp crackdown taking effect July 1

    Hempcrete homes keeping Europe cooler during extreme heat

    The story this week is simple: the government is trying to regulate cannabis like it’s playing Twister in a hurricane. DEA is building a one-sided record, the White House is trying to rescue hemp, Congress is dusting off banking reform, and the states are already counting billions in cannabis tax revenue.

    On a Father’s Day episode of Cannabis Legalization News, the hosts discuss running their dispensary ahead of an upcoming grand opening, including signage delays, compliance burdens, medical tax differences, pricing pressures, curbside ordering with cashless payment, and a “round up” donation program supporting Freedom Grow. They lead with a unanimous Supreme Court decision affirming cannabis users’ Second Amendment rights to bear arms, then cover the DEA’s upcoming rescheduling hearing and concerns about limited participation and delays, plus early DEA on-site inspections at Mississippi dispensaries seeking federal protections. Other topics include Virginia lawmakers’ negotiated marijuana sales bill with automatic resentencing hearings, a Massachusetts Supreme Court ruling rejecting a legalization rollback challenge, Ukraine issuing its first cannabis license after two years, industry lobbying around hemp and beverages, and criticism of Illinois’ social equity and licensing system.

  • Drug Testing Lobby Sues Over Schedule III as Illinois Signs Major Cannabis Law Changes
    Jun 15 2026

    Send us Fan Mail


    On the June 14 (Flag Day) episode of Cannabis Legalization News, the hosts preview a lead story about the National Drug and Alcohol Screening Association suing to pause federal cannabis rescheduling to Schedule III, arguing economic harm as federal marijuana trafficking prosecutions have dropped about 95%.

    They discuss Illinois’ newly signed SB 3222, described as the biggest change to Illinois cannabis laws in six years, including requiring ID checks for hemp, ending most hemp sales by November 12, doubling possession limits, expanding hours, allowing drive-through/curbside options, and increasing craft grow limits to 14,000 square feet; they note it may also help their dispute over Illinois social equity loan eligibility and discuss their dispensary operations in Pekin.

    Other topics include a possible Virginia deal to legalize sales, Rhode Island ending residency requirements, DC proposing higher medical taxes, Alabama reaching 100 patients, Maine recalls for yeast/mold, and international news from France, plus a 710 Seattle Dab Roast cannabis art event.
