Federal Judge Blocks Missouri Medical Marijuana Licensing Residency Rule – Marijuana Moment
For years, Democratic lawmakers have mostly led the charge in pushing for marijuana legalization—but that seems to be changing of late.

But this month alone, new legalization legislation is being…

By Eric O’Connell/Zip06.com • 10/12/2021 01:29 p.m. EST The Old Saybrook Zoning Commission (ZC) unanimously passed a moratorium on marijuana regulations at a meeting held Oct. 4.

The survey is especially surprising for Baby Boomers, and even Generation Xers,…

Do you know what “shatter,” “wax,” “dab products” and “highly potent THC vaping products” are? Most Guilford parents and kids are not aware of the health risks of marijuana use by teens, especially the new high THC concentrates. The cannabis industry denies its products pose a risk.
