Cannabis and the Future of Federal Policy with Jim Higdon!
Cannabis and the Future of Federal Policy with Jim Higdon Cannabis policy is changing fast—but where is it actually headed? In this episode, Ryan sits down with Jim Higdon, co-founder of Cornbread Hemp and author of The Cornbread Mafia , for a timely conversation about the future of cannabis and hemp in America. Jim breaks down the fight unfolding in Washington over hemp, why he believes Schedule III is an important step but descheduling must ultimately be the goal, and how cannabis could eventually be regulated and distributed more like alcohol. They also explore a potentially transformative development: the emerging pathway for Medicare and private insurance reimbursement of cannabinoid products—and what it could someday mean for patients purchasing medical cannabis with a copay. Plus, Jim shares his perspective on banking reform, interstate commerce, building successful cannabis brands, and what businesses and consumers should be watching as federal policy enters a pivotal new chapter. https://www.cornbreadhemp.com Info: Cannabis Connoisseur Podcast Info: Follow us @ThecannabisC on instagram E-mail us at: thecannabisc@gmail.com Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7BRwpUrBgQM&t=5s “Disclaimer: The content provided in this podcast is for informational purposes only and should Not be considered medical advice.
