It would be a mistake to think that the shifting cannabis landscape has implications for the cannabis industry alone. Certain ripple effects are obvious. Insurance, law, and banking entities have for years lobbied on cannabis-related issues, as Cannabis Wire has reported. More recently, entities as mainstream as Amazon have joined in, with an emphasis in their case on a looser approach to consumption among workers. Even state broadcasters associations have joined together in an effort to air cannabis ads. Each quarter, lobbying disclosures provide a fascinating window into who has entered the room of cannabis policymaking. And the first quarter of 2022 was no different. Here are four entities in particular that caught our attention: Entity: National Cattlemen’s Beef Association Lobbying issue: “Request for further research on Hemp in animal ag feed” and “Hemp as livestock feed.”
