The change would allow cities and counties to have dual licensing powers over retailers of cannabis products within their jurisdiction. While locals would have to issue licenses to any retailer licensed by the state, they could use their local license to enforce state rules on sales. Cities and counties could also charge a small license fee — no more than $200 — that would be charged on top of the state's $250 license fee.

  SPRINGFIELD, IL. (KMIZ) What Missouri law enforcement officers are grappling with right now — newly legalized recreational marijuana for adults — Illinois went through three years ago.  chronic carts Over three years since the Illinois governor signed  recreational marijuana  into law for those over 21.

The cannabis sector has been trending higher during the last week, and we attribute the move to the introduction of favorable legislation in the United States (US) Congress. Earlier this week, GOP Congressman Greg Steube introduced a bill entitled " Marijuana 1-to-3 Act," which would move cannabis from Schedule I to Schedule III under the federal law. The development was a catalyst for the cannabis sector, and we will monitor the progress of the legislation. Cannabis legalization is coming in the US, and it is only a matter of time until there is legislative reform at the Federal level. We believe this is the most significant potential catalyst for the cannabis sector and have worked to identify companies that would benefit from this. Today, we want to highlight three operators that would benefit from legislative reform in the US and want our readers to be aware of these companies. We consider Body and Mind Inc.
