INFORMAZIONI SU QUESTO EPISODIO
What happens to Oklahoma cannabis businesses that missed the DEA registration deadline? Can they continue operating, transfer products, or work with companies that filed on time? And could operating under someone else's license put everyone involved at risk?
With Shane out this week, Brandon Fountain is joined by guest co-host Matthew Phillips to unpack the confusion surrounding DEA registration, Oklahoma Bureau of Narcotics (OBN) requirements, and the potential consequences for Oklahoma's medical marijuana industry.
From timely filer status and cannabis testing laboratory compliance to OMMA leadership and recreational marijuana legalization, the conversation explores the regulatory uncertainty facing Oklahoma growers, processors, dispensaries, and testing labs.
The discussion also covers Oklahoma's failed recreational marijuana ballot initiatives, a recent Oklahoma Supreme Court decision involving petition requirements, and what Oklahoma's cannabis industry can learn from Missouri about advocacy, industry unity, and building relationships with lawmakers.
