As we reflect on Cannabis Business Times’ most-read articles in October, readers were once again most engaged with coverage of federal policy reform, including the SAFER Banking Act and the fallout of the federal government’s recommendation to reschedule cannabis to Schedule III under the Controlled Substances Act.
Leading our list of most popular content this month is a list of which U.S. senators have decided to co-sponsor the SAFER Banking Act, revised cannabis banking legislation introduced in late September. Also landing in the top 10 this month is a roundup of industry reactions to the bill’s advancement in the Senate Banking Committee, with comments from Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer about when we can expect the SAFER Banking Act to make its way to the floor for consideration.
