CBD News Roundup: GNLN, NEPT, CURLF, OGI, CVSI

Support for full federal legalization of cannabis is at an all-time high, with 60% of adults believing that marijuana should be legal for both medical and recreational use. This is consistent with the fact that Americans now have access to either medical or adult-use cannabis under state laws in most states: Since 2012, 18 states and Washington, D.C., have legalized adult-use marijuana, while 37 states have legalized medical marijuana.

Republicans have introduced a bill to legalize the cash crop federally, it is only a matter of time before a lot of the red tape holding some companies back is removed.
