In an article published in Cannabis Business Executive on January 13, 2021, I discuss the various cannabis-related legislation that the Democrat-controlled Congress may consider in 2021, how the fundamental shift in political power on Capitol Hill affects Democrat Sen. Chuck Schumer’s ability to introduce cannabis-related legislation in the Senate for a vote and how Vice President-elect Harris’ tie-breaking authority as the president of the Senate will likely affect the outcome of any such vote.
I specifically discuss in the article the probability of legislation for cannabis banking, marijuana legalization and medical marijuana research reaching the Senate, and if it does, the path it would need to take to become law.
