Jim Higdon, one of the owners of Cornbread Hemp and one of the leaders in Kentucky's movement to legalize cannabis (and the author of several books) joined us today to talk about the different bills attempting to legalize marijuana during the 2022 session. In addition, he spoke to us about the current state of the hemp market and ways he thinks the crop could and should be regulated under the next farm bill.
The session is almost over. Before our interview with Jim, Jazmin and Robert discussed the final state of the budget as well as many of the major pieces of legislation that passed Tuesday and Wednesday afternoon. We will do a final pre-veto-period wrap-up next week.
