Sen. Jeff Merkley (D-OR), the lead sponsor of a cannabis banking bill, told Marijuana Moment that former President Donald Trump's support for the reform is "helpful" and "great"—but referred questions about whether it'll generate more GOP votes and clear the path for passage to Sen.

A Nebraska judge is weighing new briefs in a lawsuit challenging two medical cannabis initiatives on the November ballot. If the suit is successful, it could prevent votes from being counted after Election Day.
