Regulating Cannabis Event with The Hill

Public support of marijuana legalization and reform has been steadily on the rise over the past decade. Nationwide, cannabis has been fully legalized in 18 states and the District of Columbia and is legal for medicinal purposes in 37 states. Yet cannabis remains highly regulated and criminalized at the federal level. From disproportionately impacting communities of color through racially targeted arrests, to a lack of federal protections for financial institutions serving marijuana businesses – the federal marijuana prohibition has severely impacted both individuals and businesses across the country. What does federal reform of cannabis look like in the 117th Congress? What guidelines could a sensible policy framework contain? How can a regulated marijuana industry operate safely and how should priority issues like safe banking, decriminalization, and substance abuse be addressed? The Hill will gather policymakers and subject matter experts for a comprehensive discussion about cannabis policy and regulation.
