One, a bill adding autism spectrum disorders as a medical cannabis-qualifying condition, was already signed by Colorado Gov. Jared Polis.
Chuck Smith, president of Colorado Leads, was quoted in The Denver Post about the need for public and private investment in the cannabis industry.
Both the cannabis delivery and hospitality bills advanced in the House.
The state’s current medical and recreational marijuana laws are set to sunset in September of this year, so lawmakers have been reviewing the laws and regulations.
And The Colorado Sun looked at the increasing political clout wielded by Colorado’s cannabis industry.
