Marijuana U.S.A.

"Republican Gov. Jeff Landry has vetoed legislation, House Bill 391, that sought to provide the executive branch with the ability to grant expedited pardons to those convicted of a first-time marijuana possession offense.

In his veto message, the Governor said that he was rejecting the bill, in part, because he perceived it to be “an attempt to have Louisiana accept President Biden’s invitation to the states to join his soft-on-crime, no-consequences-for-criminals agenda.”

"As more states legalize marijuana for medical and recreational purposes, the NCAA’s revised stance may encourage similar updates among high school athletic associations and other professional leagues. As an example, the NFL players union made an agreement with the league to end the NFL’s policy of suspending players because of marijuana use as part of the union’s collective bargaining agreement back in 2020.

The NFL has even committed significant funding for researching if CBD can serve as an effective alternative to opioids. It also has explored the potential therapeutic use of the non-intoxicating cannabinoid for neuroprotection from concussions and general pain management. Meanwhile, UFC announced back in December that it is formally removing marijuana from the league’s newly modified banned substances list, which builds on an earlier reform that they had adopted."
