Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) says Congress is getting “very close” to introducing and passing a marijuana bill with provisions covering banking access for legal businesses and expungements of past convictions, citing progress he’s made in discussions with a “bunch of Republican senators.”

During a debate with his Republican reelection opponent Joe Pinion on Sunday, Schumer was asked about a separate broader cannabis legalization bill he filed this year and whether he felt it would make more sense to first promote more research into marijuana before ending prohibition.

While the top senator said that research is “very, very important,” he pointed out that “many states have approved legalization of cannabis,” and so the policy is already “upon us.”

Largely catalytic for TRULIEVE, VERANO, GREEN-THUMB, CRESCO LAB, CURALEAF - constituents of MSOS ETF

>It is my opinion that the passage of a marijuana bill with provisions for banking access and expungements would be positive for companies like Trulieve, Verano, Green-Thumb and Cresco Lab. These companies are all involved in the legal cannabis industry, and thus would benefit from having greater access to banking services and being able to clear past convictions from their records. This would help them operate more smoothly and perhaps even expand their businesses. Thus, I believe this news is bullish for these stocks.

Once the banking laws are passed that will clear the way for legalization and at least a short bull run for cannabis stocks.

Although Schumer is probably gaslighting the Electorate to get votes

4 beautiful little letters... S N D L. Shit loads of cash on hand, made smart acquisitions and already loaning money out to Canada based MJ companies. Pass this USA banking bill, and allow SNDL to pump money into the USA MJ companies. This is just further profitability from interest rates. Winning!

If they just removed it from the drug schedule it wouldn't need a special banking law.

Yup - thats another catalyst which could drop in the next few months - safe is just a more near term bill to address some safety issues - with the plus of allowing banking custody and up-listing for equities

Nothing to fall for - its a bipartisan issue, thats a safety problem - everyone is on-board now and no reason to doubt it will pass.

All those conservative states passing medical cannabis is another sign that this passing is inevitable.

Up-listing and re-rating follows for USA MSOs tcnnf and grbif

I agree they have pressure from both parties . The majority wants it legal and are pressing the point.
