"Members of the North Carolina Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians have begun selling cannabis products to patrons ages 21 and older, regardless of whether they are members of federal recognized Indian tribes.

Tribal members initially began selling marijuana products to authorized patients in April. In July, they began engaging in adult-use sales exclusively to other tribal members. On Saturday, they expanded sales to anyone over 21 years of age. That day, an estimated 4,000 customers were on hand to purchase cannabis products."

"Roughly one in five older adults acknowledge having consumed cannabis over the past year, according to survey data provided by the University of Michigan’s National Poll on Healthy Aging and AARP.

Specifically, 21 percent of respondents over the age of 50 said that they consumed cannabis. Over 60 percent of consumers acknowledged using it to relax, help with sleep, or relieve pain. However, fewer than half of them have discussed their use with their health care providers.

The findings represent an uptick from past years, but are consistent with more recent survey data reporting that 20 percent of adults in their fifties and sixties are using cannabis."

"Likely voters in Arizona and Nevada strongly support allowing adults to use marijuana and other related reforms, according to polling data compiled by the market research firm The Tarrance Group.

Specifically,
supermajorities of voters in both states favored legalizing cannabis, removing it from its Schedule I classification under federal law, and permitting banks and other financial institutions to explicitly partner with state-licensed cannabis businesses.

Polling, previously compiled by the firm, reported
similar results in the battleground states of Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin."

"Newly authorized patients who begin using medical cannabis products experience rapid and clinically meaningful improvements in their health-related quality of life, according to data published in the Journal of Cannabis Research.

Investigators affiliated with Philadelphia’s College of Osteopathic Medicine assessed changes in patients’ general health prior to their use of medical cannabis and then three months later. Researchers described their study as “one of the largest longitudinal studies of quality of life in individuals using medical marijuana in the US.”
