    The rising popularity of Dry January among younger Americans may benefit weed sales and the growing cannabis industry. During this year's month-long adult beverage abstinence trend, sales at three of the largest U.S. liquor chains hit a post-pandemic low. More specifically, alcohol sales fell by 52% in the first week of the year, the most on record. In lieu of alcohol consumption, 34% of adults between 21 and 24 years old and 24% of adults between 25 and 34 years old use CBD or cannabis products.

    Ohio's legalization efforts could be facing an uphill battle following a celebratory election night.

The approval of Issue 2 should be a moment to celebrate as freedom and democracy push forward. However, this enthusiasm is tempered a bit by the reminder that the journey of legalized cannabis use is a continued slog that requires constant effort and support.

    The legalization of recreational weed is up for a vote in The Buckeye State. Election Day is approaching in Ohio and residents of the battleground state have the opportunity to approve Issue 2. The proposed ballot measure, sponsored by the Coalition to Regulate Marijuana Like Alcohol, would allow adults over 21 years old to possess 2.5 ounces of cannabis and up to 15 grams of cannabis concentrates for recreational use.

Boy isn't this timeless. A true mental exercise of self preservation for those in legal cannabis. The takeaway is that we forge ahead without politicians, as the good ones have and continue to do, and they will eventually catch up.
