This Deserves Re-PostingThe fact that MJ protections are part of the national debate right now in Congress as part of passing the US Budget, is EXTREMELY positive news. Republican senators have been the biggest critics of Sessions move so far.
Jan 19th is the date you should circle on your Calendar. Very strong odds Congress is going to reschedule MJ from Schedule 1 federally. Protections are also going to be sought for the states who have passed their own laws. WHAT does this mean? Essentially it'll make MJ medical and recreational (state-specific) legal and untouchable from the Feds. Including the ability for financial institutions to deal with US cannabis entities--MJ will ACTUALLY be open for big finance to get involved.
For that reason alone--hang on to your shares folks IMHO.
