Sales under the state license began today

Patients who meet state requirements can finally access approved medical cannabis products from licensed dispensaries in Alabama.

Selling with a state license began today, more than five years after lawmakers adopted legislation regulation of the medical marijuana market. For years, the program’s rollout has been delayed by litigation — at one time with regulators suspension licensing process in general.

“For five long years, Alabama patients have not been able to locally obtain medically necessary, state-approved cannabis products from state-licensed dispensaries,” said NORML Deputy Director Paul Armentano. “These unwarranted delays have caused unnecessary suffering and needlessly put the health and well-being of patients at risk. Starting today, lawmakers, regulators and licensed providers must start putting patients’ needs first.”

“No other drug heals like cannabis”

Iowa’s governor has signed a bill that will double the number of medical cannabis dispensaries allowed to operate in the state

Under previous law, Iowa’s limited medical marijuana program allowed only five dispensaries. That would double to 10 below HF 990, which Gov. Kim Reynolds (R) approved Tuesday.

The measure passed the House 88-5 in April and previously cleared the Senate 42-5.

Bridget Spiddle, public policy and communications coordinator for the Marijuana Policy Project (MPP), wrote in an alert to supporters last month that the reform would be “a critical step in expanding access to medical cannabis for one of the most restrictive medical cannabis programs in the country.”

“No other drug is treated like cannabis. Pharmacies are widely available throughout Iowa, while dispensaries operate in five locations serving thousands of patients,” she said. “Rural Iowans must spend enormous amounts of time and resources on expensive trips to get their medicine.”

Amsterdam Won’t Ban Tourists From Its Coffeeshops After All. It’s Coming For Their Wallets Instead

Amsterdam Won’t Ban Tourists From Its Coffeeshops After All. It’s Coming For Their Wallets Instead

For years, it seemed like Amsterdam might finally pull the welcome mat out from under its tourist tourists. That plan doesn’t work this week. The ban on foreign guests buying weed was not included in the new coalition agreement of the ruling parties of the cityopen June 3which means that the mecca of cannabis tourism remains open to all.

The agreement between PRO Amsterdam, the combined PvdA and GroenLinks, and D66, called “Jouw stad is mijn stad. Ons Amsterdam (“Your city is my city. Our Amsterdam”)” quietly dropped the so-called ingezetenencriterium, a resident-only rule that barred non-residents from buying cannabis in the city’s roughly 166 cafes. At the same time, the long-discussed plan for an erotic center near the RAI was aborted.

The ban has been in place in Amsterdam since at least 2021, championed for years by Mayor Femke Halsema, who could impose it by decree but has always said she wants the council behind it. The PvdA wrote this into its platform last year. The catch: GroenLinks and D66 never supported it, and once PvdA merged with GroenLinks into PRO, the plan effectively died in the party that promoted it.

The argument that coffee shop operators have been making for years has won. The ban on tourists does not kill demand, but gives it to street vendors. Criminologist Dirk Korff, who has studied the problem for years, found that roughly a quarter of foreign tourists would turn to the black market if shops were closed to them, trading regulated products for what someone sells on the bridge.
