United States Senators Cory Booker, Ron Wyden, and Chuck Schumer have released their long-awaited federal legalization bill, the Cannabis Administration & Opportunity Act.
The text of the discussion draft can be found here, and a summary can be found here.
The Senate’s 163-page Cannabis Administration & Opportunity Act differs in many ways from the 90-page MORE Act of 2021 introduced in the House.
