State Cannabis Programs
With 36 states, the District of Columbia, Guam, Puerto Rico and U.S. Virgin Islands having comprehensive medical marijuana programs and at least another 11 states allowing the use of CBD/low-THC for medical purposes, most states have some experience with the legalization of medical marijuana. However, Marijuana is defined under fedearl law as a Schedule 1 drug that is 1. dangerous, 2. has no currently accepted medical use, and 3. has a high potential for abuse. The federal prohibition complicates taxation, banking and other areas regulated by federal laws for many businesses and patients.
