/ TOP THINGS TO KNOW
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services is preparing to provide coverage for CBD in line with a proposed rule change set to be published in the Federal Register on Friday—and Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. recently discussed the policy with the head of an organization that President Donald Trump promoted a cannabis video from.
Senate Appropriations Committee Republicans released a bill that would continue blocking Washington, D.C. from legalizing recreational cannabis sales and a report warning the District that "marijuana remains illegal under Federal law, which includes enhanced penalties" for sales near schools.
Sens. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) and Tina Smith (D-MN), alongside Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), discussed plans to reverse the federal recriminalization of hemp THC products before it takes effect—with Omar saying House Majority Whip Tom Emmer (R-MN) is "amenable" to the idea.
Florida Democratic Party Chair Nikki Fried told Marijuana Moment that a new federal ban on hemp THC products is why people "hate government"—and predicted that voters in her state will legalize cannabis on the ballot next year.
The Cato Institute filed a brief asking the U.S. Supreme Court to take up a lawsuit from marijuana businesses that are challenging the constitutionality of federal prohibition—saying it touches on whether "Congress may wield a near-boundless commerce power to criminalize activity that is lawful under state law and confined within a state's borders."
FundCanna CEO Adam Stettner argues in a new Marijuana Moment op-ed that recriminalizing hemp THC products was an "incredibly shortsighted" move that will "put consumers at risk, rob municipalities and states from taxable revenue and ultimately hurt farmers nationwide."

The Michigan Court of Claims held a hearing on a marijuana industry lawsuit challenging the state's newly approved cannabis tax increase.
