PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT: DANGERS OF VAPINGAs most of you are likely aware, there's been an onslaught of articles published recently about the dangers of vaping. So far, six deaths have been reported, and hundreds more cases of vaping-related lung disease have been reported throughout the country. As a result, the CDC has issued a vaping warning while they investigate the cause. While details are still emerging, here's what we know thus far:
Vape Pen Lung Disease: Here’s What You Need to Know Regulators, Industry React to Vitamin E-Tainted Vape Carts Special Report: Cannabis Researchers, Scientists Confront Vaping-Related Lung Disease Debate Are Vaping Ailments Linked to Bootleg Cartridges? In light of this information, we encourage our members to only purchase vaping products from licensed California cannabis retailers like The Green Cross. This will ensure the products have passed state-regulated testing and are free of dangerous additives. The only brands named in the investigation to date are Chronic Carts, Dank Vapes, Honey Cut, Floraplex, Pure Diluent, and West Coast Carts. We strongly recommend that you dispose of any vape products purchased on the illicit market, and consider ending the use of nicotine e-cigarettes altogether, especially those containing flavorings and additives. We also want to take this opportunity to assure you that The Green Cross does not carry any products included in the CDC warnings or currently under investigation. All our vaping products are free of harmful additives and diluents, and follow strict compliance with all state regulations. We only work with vendors who pride themselves on offering high quality cannabis concentrates made with integrity. All products are lab-tested and free of any hazardous chemicals mentioned above. All of our vaping vendors have recently released statements to address consumer concerns. Please take a moment to review their statements for more details: Vendor Statements. We greatly appreciate you taking the time to review this information and urge you to take necessary precautions to prevent this from happening to you or your loved ones. We will continue to update you as more details come to light.  In an effort to be more eco-friendly, The Green Cross encourages all members to re-use The Green Cross Child Proof Exit Bags offered at the end of each purchase. For a limited time while supplies last, these bags are available for 10¢ each (per the San Francisco Checkout Bag Ordinance).

But in an odd twist, Santiago now works in the drug trade — at a medical marijuana facility. At first, Santiago felt like she was breaking the law as she pruned and clipped cannabis plants on a plantation run by a Colombian firm called Clever Leaves. However, the government legalized medical marijuana in 2016 and now Clever Leaves is exporting cannabis-based products to Canada and the United Kingdom. Read more » Presidential pot: Why 2020 Democrats are ready to legalize marijuana DENVER – Once a politically dangerous subject, legal marijuana has become something of a de facto platform plank for the 2020 Democratic candidates: All support either legalizing or decriminalizing its use, and the differences lie in how far the candidates are willing to take it. Those differences – particularly former Vice President Joe Biden's reluctance to embrace full federal legalization and the lack of enthusiasm that increasingly organized young marijuana activists have for him – may play a role in determining who faces President Donald Trump next fall, experts said.

From the 1930s through the 1960s, scientists, lawmakers, police and the public quarreled over the veracity of the numbers spit out by the device, the appropriate legal limit for drivers and whether they could trust a machine over a cop's testimony.

But that’s exactly what has happened. Officials in both Florida and Texas have voiced their intention to stop the prosecution of low-level marijuana cases. That’s because no reliable field test exists that can tell the difference between the presence of hemp, which won’t get you high, and cannabis, which will..

The new law removes the possibility of jail time as a penalty for up to three grams of marijuana, but maintains a $130 fine. Hawaii’s Democrat-controlled legislature approved the bill and sent it to Democratic Gov. David Ige in May. Ige didn’t sign it, but he also didn’t veto it, effectively letting it become law on Tuesday. The new law will take effect on January 11, 2020. Read more » Americans Bought $400M in Cannabis for July Fourth America lit more than just fireworks this Independence Day—the July Fourth week saw record legal cannabis sales in the fast-growing industry. Legal cannabis sales totaled $400 million for the July Fourth week, up 60% over the weekly national average. That estimate comes from Akerna, formerly MJFreeway, a technology company that runs dispensary cash registers nationwide. Akerna estimates Americans spent more on cannabis than chicken for their barbecues this Fourth of July. Read more » Illinois becomes 11th state to allow recreational marijuana SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (AP) — Illinois’ new governor delivered on a top campaign promise Tuesday by signing legislation making the state the 11th to approve marijuana for recreational use in a program offering legal remedies and economic benefits to minorities whose lives critics say were damaged by a wayward war on drugs. Legalization in Illinois also means that nearly 800,000 people with criminal records for purchasing or possessing 30 grams of marijuana or less may have those records expunged, a provision minority lawmakers and interest groups demanded. It also gives cannabis-vendor preference to minority owners and promises 25% of tax revenue from marijuana sales to redevelop impoverished communities. Read more » Marijuana Study Finds CBD Can Cause Liver Damage There is no denying that cannabidiol, more commonly referred to as CBD, is rapidly becoming more popular in the United States than sliced bread. It is a hot trend that got started several years ago after Dr. Sanja Gupta showed the nation in his documentary 'Weed 2' just how this non-intoxicating component of the cannabis plant was preventing epileptic children from having seizures. Since then, CBD, a substance often touted as being safer than popping pills, has become highly revered as an alternative treatment for a variety of common ailments from anxiety to chronic pain. But a new study suggests that CBD may spawn its fair share of health issues. Specifically, scientists have learned that this substance could be damaging our livers in the same way as alcohol and other drugs. Read more » United States of Weed Curious about the status of cannabis? Here’s a map of where marijuana legalization stands across the country — and a deeper look into some places with disparate approaches to pot. The country is moving forward with legalization at a record pace — but what that actually means can vary wildly from state to state. Some that are “medically legal” consider limited access to CBD to be enough, while others allow full recreational use, offering all forms of THC-rich, psychoactive products to anyone over 21. And then there’s Alabama. Here, a breakdown of what’s legal, what’s not, and where you should be looking next. Read more » We hope you're all having a wonderful summer thus far!

As the public discussion moves beyond superstition and into the realm of established facts, it’s important to also tell the stories behind the data. Leafly solicited voices of experience from the officials who’ve lived the change, and we were met with a warm response. Former mayors, public health researchers, state regulators, and police, as well as current city council presidents, and current store operators all had stories to share. Some start at the birth of medical cannabis dispensary licensing in the Bay Area in 2004. Others finish in the advanced adult use markets of Colorado in 2019. Read more » Nevada Becomes First State To Ban Most Pre-Employment Marijuana Screening CARSON CITY, Nevada (CBS Local) — Nevada has become the first state to ban employers from discriminating against workers for marijuana use, with some exceptions. Governor Steve Sisolak signed Assembly Bill No. 132 on Friday, which makes it unlawful for an employer to fail or refuse to hire someone because they tested positive for marijuana on a drug screening test. Read more » How Legal Weed Is Killing America’s Most Famous Marijuana Farmers EUREKA, Calif. — On a sunny day in the spring, Thomas Mulder walked through his greenhouse, down a narrow path between two long, knee-high, wooden planters. In a few weeks, the greenhouse would be full of marijuana plants a foot or two high—indica-sativa hybrid strain Sour G, or White Tahoe Cookies with its characteristic golden hairs around the flower. A few more months and the plants would reach Mulder’s shoulders. But at that moment, the planters were empty as Mulder gestured with his hands to show how tall his crop would eventually become. Mulder has three greenhouses that sit on this flat patch of land deep in the mountains of Humboldt County. This part of his farm is accessible only by a steep, newly paved road that passes in and out of Humboldt Redwoods State Park, and giant trees crowd so close on either side of the property that you don’t even notice Mulder’s farm until the last bend of the road. Read more » Recreational marijuana movement takes root in Midwest but efforts elsewhere have stalled The legal marijuana movement, which in recent years has flourished in coastal states, is taking up new roots in the Midwest even as efforts have stalled in nearly a dozen other states this year. Lawmakers in Illinois approved a measure Friday to legalize the sale of marijuana to anyone over the age of 21, making it the second state in the nation’s interior to legalize pot, after Michigan. Read more » Federal Court Orders DEA To ‘Promptly’ Consider Marijuana Rescheduling…Or Else A federal appeals court gave medical cannabis patients and reform advocates a small but significant procedural victory on Thursday, ruling that it would hold open a case challenging the scheduling status of marijuana under federal law. In essence, the court is putting the federal government on notice that it must “promptly” make a decision on marijuana rescheduling so that those who rely on its medical benefits don’t unduly suffer.
