Shadd Dales and Anthony Varrell return from the Benzinga Cannabis Capital Conference in Chicago, where they spent two full days talking with operators, investors, and financial players across the industry. A lot of conversations centered around banking access, capital constraints, and how companies are adjusting to ongoing market realities.Terry Mendez, CEO of Safe Harbor Financial (NASDAQ: SHFS), who was also at Benzinga will join us to share his take on what’s happening in cannabis banking—what institutions are saying behind closed doors and whether real progress is possible anytime soon. On the corporate side, Safe Harbor has made some notable moves: a reverse split to stay compliant with Nasdaq, debt restructuring that freed up $6 million in capital, and a refreshed leadership team. They’re aiming to stabilize and position the company for growth in fintech beyond just cannabis.Plus, Michael Bronstein, president of ATACH, joins us with updates on cannabis legislation in key states. We ask him about Pennsylvania’s adult-use efforts, and more importantly, the rumor out of Texas—that Governor Greg Abbott may be planning to veto SB3, the hemp regulation bill. Is it real? What’s the motive? Michael breaks down what he’s hearing, how credible the veto talk is, and what could happen next if the bill is blocked. If true, it could delay Texas’s regulatory overhaul and signal continued resistance from the top.#CannabisBanking #SHFS #SafeHarborFinancial #TerryMendez #BenzingaCannabis #CannabisInvesting #CannabisStocks #PennsylvaniaCannabis #TexasCannabis #TradeToBlackPodcastWant to see last week's recap? • Hemp Crackdown, Cannabis vs Alcohol & Refo...
