Legalization Movement in Congress – MORE Act in House & CAOA Bill in Senate=DEA Hearings End

In the re-release of the full version of this week’s Cannabis Coast to Coast News with Alaina Pinto, senior US senators Schumer, Wyden & Booker will try again to start the legalization process in the Senate with a resurrection of the CAOA Bill of 2021; plus, in the House, the MORE Act to de-schedule cannabis picks up more sponsors, a total of 75. DEA hearing on rescheduling wrap-up and wait for final decision before the end of July. Plus, the Massachusetts cannabis industry rallies for a ballot battle with SAM, and the industry is ready for a fight! Plus a late breaking news item that will be one of the lead stories next week, the Repeal of Adult Use has been given #8.
So IT’S NO ON #8!
It’s important that Massachusetts sends a message to SAM, stop using prohibition as a strategy to advance your so called “Smart” initiative.

The Best Sativa Seeds Of 2026

What Makes a Great Modern Sativa Strain?
I’ve always loved classic sativas for one reason: nothing beats their uplifting, clear-headed effect and vibrant terpene profiles. The problem is that most original tropical sativas simply weren’t bred for modern cultivation. They can grow several meters tall, flower for months, and produce relatively airy buds, traits that make perfect sense in their native equatorial climates but are far less practical in a grow tent or a typical outdoor season.

The dark side of cannabis reveals in surgery

Do you use cannabis regularly? Or do you simply want to understand the REAL impact of marijuana on your health?

Dr. Kaveh shares his experience treating disturbing complications he’s witnessed firsthand in chronic cannabis users undergoing surgery and other treatments. Some include:

Anesthesia Resistance: Cannabis users needing up to 200% MORE anesthesia than non-users, increasing the risk of serious side effects and complications. What’s happening to the brain that causes this alarming resistance?

Cannabis Addiction: A young man’s struggle with cannabis addiction and how it nearly derailed his life. I’ll break down the signs of addiction and the dangers of ignoring them.

Post-Operative Complications: The paradoxical effects of cannabis on pain and nausea after surgery. Some patients experience WORSE pain and vomiting despite using marijuana for relief.

This isn’t about being anti-marijuana, it’s about patient safety and informed choices. It’s important to understand:

Sky-High THC Potency: Today’s commercial cannabis strains have 10x the THC of the original plant. Is this truly “natural” and harmless?

The Manipulation of the “Miracle Cure” Narrative: Political and corporate interests are downplaying the risks of cannabis while pushing it as a solution for everything. Patients deserve better!

The Importance of Honesty with Your Doctor: Don’t hide your cannabis use from your medical team. It could have serious consequences for your health and your surgery.

This video will empower you to make informed decisions about your health and challenge the misleading narratives surrounding cannabis.

5 Tips for Starting Seeds Indoors!

A few more tips! 👇

Seed Starting Mix:
My go-to mix:
-1 part coco coir
-1 part vermiculite
-1 part perlite
-½ part compost or worm castings
-½ part finely screened garden soil (optional)

Airflow:
💨 A small fan near your seedlings helps prevent mold and disease.💨 It also strengthens plants by mimicking outdoor wind, preparing them for transplanting.

Temperature:
🌡 Most seedlings thrive at 65-75°F.🌡 Heat mats help maintain the ideal soil temperature, but if you don’t have one, try placing trays near a heating vent or radiator.

Light:
💡 Seedlings need 12-16 hours of light per day—don’t forget to turn them off at night!💡 Keep grow lights 2-4 inches above the seedlings to prevent legginess.💡 I aim for 5,000 lumens per light

Label, Label, Label:
🗒️Mark your seeds RIGHT AWAY! Ask me how I learned. 😅

Supplies:
🛒 Shop local when possible—many garden centers now carry seed-starting supplies.🛒 Looking for links? I’ve added my favorite seed-starting supplies in my storefront (link in bio)!

Hardening Off:
🌱 Don’t skip this step! Gradually introduce seedlings to the outdoors for about a week before transplanting.🌱 Start with 1 hour in a shaded area, then increase exposure each day.

Now let’s get growing! Make sure to follow along for gardening tips all season long! 🌿👋

The signing follows Mr. Trump’s move in December 2025 to reclassify marijuana as a less dangerous drug.

The DEA Hearing Is Over. Now What? | TDR Cannabis in 5

In the latest TDR Cannabis in Five, host Shadd Dales breaks down what happens now that the DEA’s Administrative Law Judge hearing on cannabis rescheduling has officially wrapped.

The testimony is complete, the record is closed, and the next key date is August 17. That is when final briefs are due and the record is formally served. It is not the date Judge Derek C. Julius issues his Recommended Decision, and that distinction matters when trying to understand the real timeline.

Shadd walks through each step that follows: the ALJ drafting period, the mandatory 25-day waiting period after the recommendation is served, and the DEA’s publication window before a Final Rule can be issued.

The episode also looks back at the hearing record itself. The government stayed focused on the statutory and scientific case for Schedule III, while several opposition witnesses spent time on workplace testing, personal stories and broader policy issues that were outside the central scheduling question.

The final portion covers the legal challenges expected after the recommendation, including the difference between the current medical cannabis lawsuit involving treaty authority and any future challenge to broader rescheduling under the Administrative Procedure Act.

For now, August 17 is the next public deadline. After that, the timing depends on how long Judge Julius takes to complete his recommendation.

Cannabis Just Became a Political Battle | TDR Cannabis in 5

Federal cannabis reform is quickly becoming one of the biggest political issues in Washington.

In the latest TDR Cannabis in Five, host Shadd Dales breaks down new reporting from Marijuana Moment after Senate Democrats reintroduced legislation that would fully legalize marijuana under federal law—just as the Trump administration continues moving forward with its effort to reschedule cannabis to Schedule III.

The episode explains what is included in the Cannabis Administration and Opportunity Act, how it differs from the administration’s current rescheduling approach, and why both parties are now advancing very different visions for federal cannabis reform.

Shadd also looks at the political timing behind the legislation, why cannabis has become a bipartisan issue heading into the midterm election cycle, and what these competing proposals could mean for cannabis operators, investors, patients, and the broader industry.

Whether reform ultimately comes through Congress, the administrative process, or a combination of both, cannabis policy is now moving on multiple fronts at the same time. This episode breaks down where things stand today and why Washington’s latest moves could shape the next phase of federal cannabis reform.
