The 2020 Election And Cannabis

The Election And Cannabis with Andrew Kline, and Aaron Smith. The NCIA team has had just a few days to digest and process the results of the 2020 U.S. election, including five new states who passed cannabis reform laws for medical or adult-use which is really exciting for our movement and industry. So today we’re talking with NCIA’s very own co-founder and CEO, Aaron Smith, and our Director of Public Policy, Andrew Kline. We think it’s safe to say that we are clear on who the next President and Vice President will be on January 20th, 2021. While we didn’t see any real federal action one way or another relating to cannabis these last four years, we talk about what we can gather about what the impact of a Biden-Harris White House administration might be on cannabis policy reform. As far as good news goes, we’re obviously super excited about 5 new states voting to pass medical or adult-use marijuana laws last week. Cannabis was a big winner yet again this year in South Dakota, Mississippi, Montana, New Jersey, and Arizona. So we discuss with Aaron and Andrew what this means for our industry going forward.
