/ TOP THINGS TO KNOW
Rep. Andy Harris (R-MD) told Marijuana Moment that he's not worried about the Senate rejecting his legislation to federally ban many hemp products—saying it is "carefully drafted," though there is also "some misunderstanding about the wording" of the scope of the proposed prohibition.

Michigan lawmakers filed a bill to legalize psilocybin for people with PTSD, with the lead sponsor saying the psychedelic "has potentially life-changing effects for extended periods of time after treatment."
A California tax hike on marijuana will take effect next week after lawmakers failed to include provisions to delay its implementation in budget legislation.
New York lawmakers sent Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) a bill to extend the deadline for some marijuana businesses to submit electronic tax returns, providing manufacturers and distributors with a more flexible schedule to file.

Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) questioned Attorney General Pam Bondi about Chinese-run illegal marijuana growing operations in her state during a Senate Appropriations Committee hearing.

Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) tweeted, "When nothing else is working for our veterans, we owe it to them to try what might. At today's @HouseCommerce Health hearing, I asked @HHSgov @SecKennedy for a status update on psychedelic research for PTSD and TBI. Glad to hear the Trump Administration is on board — and that results continue to be strong. I passed legislation to fund more clinical trials two years ago — and I can't wait to see where the science goes."

Rep. Lou Correa (D-CA) tweeted about the passage of his amendment to encourage psychedelic therapy access for military veterans, saying, "Every day, veterans return home from battle, many still with invisible wounds. As co-chair of the PATH caucus, I'm fighting to revolutionize the way we treat PTSD. The science is showing that psychedelics offer game-changing results."
