One week ago, on Friday afternoon, The House of Representatives threw the hemp industry a curve. A last minute amendment to the 2024 Farm Bill got approved. If the bill does not change it could end the controversial Delta B and THC A market. Since the Farm Bill of 2018, these hemp derived intoxicants have established a billion dollar industry that is unregulated but widely distributed . This is the Full A and B Blocks of Weed Talk news with Alaina Pinto released earlier this week. Andrews Behringer in Washington DC, LeVanna Vassau in California, Tina Tasaka in Nevada, Lisa Williams in Texas. PCM Founder Jimmy Young interviews NEWS 13 NY Tara Rosenblum on her cannabis contest documenting 3 social equity participants for two years in that crazy NY market. Debi Facey in Canada, Brandon Jones in Missouri, Joe Parsons in Virginia, Marianne Cursetjee in Oregon, Doug Miller’s High on Wall Street, and an excerpt from Thomas Howard and MIggy 420 from their weekly Cannabis Legalization News on Sundays.

The A Block of this week’s Weed Talk News focuses on public feedback to the DEA. So, if you are tired of law makers making uniformed decisions about cannabis Now is your chance to educate and comment publicly to the DEA. You have until July 22 to do it!
You can also share your feelings about THC A since the DEA decided that’s not legal. Of course no one said anything for 6 years after the 2018 Farm Bill but now with 1/2 the country having access to legal weed, the other half can still find a way to get high on hemp. PCM founder Jimmy Young talks to the US Hemp Roundtable, and the Chief Strategic Officer of Jushi Holdings talks with Virginia’s Joe Parsons. Karen Black in Arizona on Curaleaf, Marianne Cursetjee in Oregon.
