  15. “The commission is not free to adopt its own definition of cannabis that is more restrictive than the definition contained in statute.” By Zach Wendling, Nebraska Examiner A state lawmaker is formally challenging regulations from the Nebraska Medical Cannabis Commission that he says “override the clearly expressed will of Nebraska voters.” A Thursday complaint led by State Sen. John Cavanaugh (D) of Omaha, a lawyer, narrows in on a handful of issues Cavanaugh cites in emergency regulations passed by the commission this summer. Commissioners hope to make the regulations final and have scheduled a 1 p.m. public hearing at the Nebraska State Office Building in Lincoln on October 15 to receive feedback. Among Cavanaugh’s complaints are that the regulations would: Restrict the availability of medical cannabis products that could be sold at licensed dispensaries to a narrow list, while the law has no restrictions. Only allow in-state health care practitioners to recommend medical cannabis, while voters approved allowing any physician to do so. Prohibit smoking or vaping of medical cannabis, while the law expressly allows any device used for vaporization or inhalation. “All without the benefit of a public hearing or public scrutiny, the commission and the governor have chosen to override the clearly expressed will of Nebraska voters,” Cavanaugh wrote to State Sen. Ben Hansen (R) of Blair, chair of the Legislature’s Executive Board. Since December, Nebraskans have been able to legally possess up to 5 ounces of medical cannabis, so long as they have a health care practitioner’s recommendation. But without licensed establishments, medical cannabis can’t yet be legally purchased in the state. Voters gave the commission until July 1 to issue regulations and Oct. 1 to begin issuing licenses, a deadline that will be missed by at least a week following two commissioner resignations. Complaint is first step A state senator can formally challenge a state agency’s regulations and begin a process to receive a written response on how the targeted rules conform to legislative intent and why they’re needed. In November, 71 percent of Nebraska voters voted to legalize medical cannabis and 67 percent of voters voted to create the new regulatory commission. Hansen will refer Cavanuagh’s complaint to State Sen. Rick Holdcroft (R) of Bellevue, chair of the General Affairs Committee, who will consider requesting the Medical Cannabis Commission to engage. The commission would have 60 days to respond if requested. Holdcroft said Thursday he had not yet seen Cavanaugh’s complaint but would review it. Cavanaugh is vice chair of the General Affairs Committee. Hansen, who noted he serves as only an “intermediary” in the complaint process, says he does feel Cavanaugh’s complaint is “legitimate,” partly because of the missed licensing deadline. “Not only because that’s what the people voted on, specifically the dates, but I think it could potentially open up the state to a lawsuit by the delay,” Hansen said. “I think it’s a legitimate complaint to look at and maybe have us as a Legislature look into things if we need to.” Cavanaugh suggested pairing his complaint with an October 31 hearing on Legislative Resolution 226, an interim study introduced by Cavanaugh with support from Holdcroft and Hansen to see how the voter-approved medical cannabis laws are being implemented. Holdcroft says he intends to invite commissioners and Nebraskans who led the 2024 ballot measure to that hearing and see what might need to be done in the 2026 legislative session to get the program “the way we want it to be run in Nebraska, whatever that is.” Nebraska judges have legal discretion to strike down any regulation “if it violates constitutional provisions, exceeds statutory authority of the agency or was adopted without compliance with the statutory procedures.” Lawmakers upheld that judicial power this spring and, beginning in May, permitted any such lawsuit to be filed in any district court, no longer just Lancaster County District Court. Commission regulations Included in the proposed regulations is a requirement that only in-state physicians could be part of a “Recommending Health Care Practitioner Directory.” Only those Nebraska practitioners could refer patients to licensed Nebraska dispensaries. Participating physicians would also need to complete annual education related to medical cannabis. Cavanaugh said while such education might make sense, that is a policy choice for the Legislature. He noted the Legislature had the choice to create a more restrictive medical cannabis program this spring but ultimately did not. Lawmakers this spring also failed to pass legal protections for physicians who recommend medical cannabis, which Cavanaugh urged as the executive branch intensifies legal pressure. “The commission is not free to adopt its own definition of cannabis that is more restrictive than the definition contained in statute,” Cavanaugh wrote. The regulations would similarly restrict Nebraskans from accessing certain types of cannabis, including raw flower, vapes and delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the part of the plant most associated with a “high.” Patients would also be limited to up to 5 grams of delta-9 THC every 90 days. Five ounces is the equivalent of 141 grams. Cavanaugh wrote it would take seven years for a patient to obtain 5 ounces of delta-9 THC, yet voters set no THC restriction. Under the regulations, up to four cultivators could each possess up to 1,250 flowering plants at one time as they work with up to four product manufacturers and 12 dispensaries statewide. In addition to the regulatory public hearing on October 15, written comments can be submitted up to 11:59 p.m. October 15 by mail to the Nebraska Medical Commission, PO Box 95046, Lincoln, NE 68509-5046; by fax at 402-471-2814 or by email to mcc.contact@nebraska.gov. Medicinal vs. recreational Gov. Jim Pillen (R), who approved the emergency regulations, including with his stipulation of a plant cap, will eventually decide whether to finalize a future set of regulations. He has said his appointees will ensure Nebraska’s cannabis program stays medicinal. Hansen led Legislative Bill 677 this spring with the support of longtime medical cannabis advocates. It was meant to help the commission by putting many regulations already in law. At multiple public forums that Hansen, Cavanaugh and Holdcroft led, voters said they would support recreational marijuana if state leaders stood in the way of medical cannabis. “If the commission, the governor and some state senators fear recreational marijuana is the next step, I can only say that the surest way to guarantee the voters take that next step is by frustrating their clearly expressed will in favor of medical cannabis,” Cavanaugh said Tuesday. The two resignations on the Liquor Control Commission this Monday, sought and received by Pillen, followed federal public corruption charges unsealed last week against the former executive director of the Nebraska Liquor Control Commission. He has pleaded not guilty. The three liquor commissioners also serve on the Medical Cannabis Commission. No commissioner was implicated in the federal indictment. Holdcroft said he was “completely surprised” by the alleged behavior of the former director. However, he said the Liquor Control Commission’s mid-September hiring of Micah Chaffee, who worked for Holdcroft and the General Affairs Committee as a research assistant, is an “excellent choice” with Chaffee’s familiarity with liquor and cannabis issues. “He’s a family man. He has high moral standards. I have great respect for him and his ability,” Holdcroft said of Chaffee. “I think with his leadership and the governor’s appointment of some quality commissioners to replace the two that have resigned, I think we should be OK.” ‘The Legislature must act’ The Medical Cannabis Commission will return next Tuesday when it is expected to vote on the first cultivator licenses. Still, getting from seed to sale likely won’t occur until at least mid-2026. Some lawmakers voted against Hansen’s LB 677 in May because they wanted to wait for legal challenges to play out against the laws, challenges that continue to this date and remain threatened. Among those threatening legal action is the Nebraska Attorney General’s office. Cavanaugh said the regulatory process has also increased legal risk. Other senators wanted to give the commission time to act, which Cavanaugh said is now a “moot argument.” Said Cavanaugh: “The Legislature must act to ensure that the will of the voters is observed.” This story was first published by Nebraska Examiner.

  25. Texas officials have officially adopted a set of emergency rules meant to prevent the sale of intoxicating hemp products to people under 21. After similar restrictions were implemented by the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission (TABC) late last month, the state Department of State Health Services (DSHS) announced on Friday that they’ve moved forward with policies changes that comply with the governor’s recent executive order on hemp. “The rules define a minor as a person under 21 years of age, require consumable hemp sellers to verify purchasers have a valid ID that shows they are at least 21 years old, and provide for penalties including the revocation of a license or registration for violations,” DSHS said. The rules are effective for 120 days, with the possibility of a 60-day extension. “At the same time, DSHS has begun the process of proposing permanent rules to implement the age requirement and other aspects of the Governor’s executive order,” the department said. “As part of that process, the public will have an opportunity to provide comments on proposed rules at a public hearing to be scheduled once those rules are published.” The reason that two agencies are issuing similar rules is that TABC only regulates retailers that sell alcohol, such as liquor stores and certain convenience and grocery stores, and thus has no jurisdiction over smoke shops and other places that sell hemp products but not alcohol. Heather Fazio, director of the advocacy group Texas Cannabis Policy Center, told Marijuana Moment on Friday that the “hodgepodge” of regulatory changes under different departments “highlights the government’s reluctance to just accept cannabis as a legal commodity.” Rather that this “duplicating of efforts and cross-talk” between agencies, it would be “so much more efficient if we had a cannabis regulatory authority in general,” she said. (Disclosure: Fazio supports Marijuana Moment’s work via monthly Patreon pledges.) This comes in the background of unsuccessful efforts to impose an outright ban on hemp products with any quantifiable amount of THC. — Marijuana Moment is tracking hundreds of cannabis, psychedelics and drug policy bills in state legislatures and Congress this year.

But he also signaled that changes may be coming to measure “total THC” to determine the legality of hemp products in a way that some stakeholders worry could negatively impact the industry. After the legislature failed to pass a controversial bill to ban hemp products containing THC during two special sessions following the governor’s veto of a similar measure earlier this year, Gov. Greg Abbott (R) signed the executive order to impose certain restrictions on the market. Meanwhile, a recent survey from a GOP pollster affiliated with President Donald Trump found that Texas Democratic and Republican voters are unified in their opposition to the hemp ban proposal.

  26. An American basketball player is potentially facing the death penalty or a lengthy prison sentence after being arrested in Indonesia over possession of marijuana gummies he said he uses for medical purposes to treat Crohn’s disease. Jarred Shaw—a 35-year-old Texan who’s played internationally for the team Prawira Bandung and helped secure a victory in the 2023 Indonesian Basketball League (IBL)—was arrested in May by Indonesian law enforcement after receiving a package of over 100 cannabis gummies. Indonesia has extremely punitive drug laws, including for marijuana, and the crime carries the possibility of capital punishment. Shaw conceded in an interview with The Guardian that was published on Friday that he made a “stupid mistake,” but he explained that he uses cannabis to treat symptoms of his gastrointestinal issues. “I use cannabis as a medicine,” he said in the interview during pre-trial detention in Jakarta. “I have an inflammatory condition called Crohn’s disease that’s incurable. There’s no medicine apart from cannabis that stops my stomach from aching.” “I made a stupid mistake,” he said. “There’s people telling me I’m about to spend the rest of my life in prison over some edibles.” “I’ve never been through anything like this,” he said, adding that during his first two months after being arrested, he was at “the lowest point in [my] life” and in a “really dark mental place.” “I felt helpless and alone. I didn’t want to wake up again,” he said. “I just turned 35 but I still feel young. I would love to continue my basketball career.” The cannabis gummies he purchased and that were delivered to him before being swarmed and arrested by police weighed 869 grams, resulting in a charge that accused him of possessing essentially a kilo of marijuana even though most of the weight was from the non-cannabis components of the edible. “They’re making it seem like I’m this big drug dealer,” Shaw said. “Why would I bring the candy here to sell? It was for personal use.” A State Department spokesperson told Marijuana Moment that “we are aware of reports of a U.S. citizen detained in Indonesia,” but that “due to privacy considerations, we have no further comment.” Marijuana Moment also reached out to the White House for comment, but representatives were not immediately available, with an automated message citing the government shutdown as the reason for unresponsiveness. So it remains to be seen whether the Trump administration will designate this as a wrongful detained individual by a foreign government, which could help secure Shaw’s release as has been the case in past marijuana-related international cases. For example, the State Department under former President Joe Biden eventually designated Marc Fogel as a wrongfully detained individual toward the end of his term, after previously resisting the move. The American teacher was serving a 14-year sentence after being convicted of “drug smuggling” over possession of a half-ounce of cannabis. Fogel was a registered medical marijuana patient in Pennsylvania prior to the imprisonment, and after his release under the Trump administration, he’s now scheduled to advocate for cannabis reform at an event in the state on Saturday. Ahead of his designation as wrongfully detained, there were repeated calls for the diplomatic status change, including a letter sent to the Biden administration by over a dozen members of Congress that emphasized that Fogel’s access to marijuana was “necessary to subdue his pain.” Brittney Griner—a U.S. professional basketball player who was previously incarcerated in Russia over possession of marijuana—was also set to attend a cannabis advocacy event earlier this year. But she ultimately pulled out after discovering what she felt was a threatening message in her hotel room. The lack of clarity on next steps in Shaw’s case, meanwhile, is heightened by the recent upsurge in anti-drug activity from the Trump administration, which has included declaring a “non-international armed conflict” with cartels that officials have used to justify attacks on ships suspected of trafficking illicit drugs. But as President Donald Trump continues to weigh a pending marijuana rescheduling proposal he said would be decided on imminently, he also shared a video last week that touted the health benefits of hemp-derived CBD.

  27. New Hampshire lawmakers have advanced a bill to allow medical marijuana dispensaries in the state to convert from from non-profit organizations to for-profit businesses. After clearing an initial committee and then passing the full House of Representatives in March, the legislation from Rep. Wendy Thomas (D) returned to the House Finance Committee under rules for measures with fiscal implications. A subcommittee of that panel unanimously approved the proposal in a 9-0 vote on Thursday. Rep. Carol McGuire (R) noted the near unanimity of support in the chamber as the legislation has moved through the process—with a fiscal note that showed a $13,000 cost estimate to implement the law that narrowly rose to the occasion of triggering a Finance Committee review. “This is something that will let the alternative treatment centers operate more efficiently and, with any luck, will lower the cost to our medical cannabis users. So I’m in strong support,” she said. Part of the motivation behind the legislation is the fact that medical marijuana dispensaries, called alternative treatment centers (ATCs) under New Hampshire law, don’t qualify for federal non-profit status. But in the state, they’re considered non-profit organizations, which has resulted in disproportionately increased operating costs. Advocates say those costs are then passed on to patients, necessitating the policy change. And they also argue that the current policy is pushing adults outside of the New Hampshire program, with many purchasing products in surrounding states with legal cannabis programs. “It’s encouraging to see that this issue continues to enjoy strong, bipartisan support in the House,” Matt Simon, director of public and government relations at the medical marijuana provider GraniteLeaf Cannabis, told Marijuana Moment. “The current business structure requirement for ATCs makes no sense and does not benefit patients in any way.” (Disclosure: Simon supports Marijuana Moment’s work with a monthly pledge on Patreon.) Similar legislation has advanced through both chambers in recent sessions but was vetoed by the governor. In 2019, a proposal passed the House and Senate, but a veto override attempt failed by just one vote in the Senate. In 2022, the override attempt failed by a single vote in the House. Sen. Daniel Innis (R) has signaled his intent to file a bill in the Senate on the issue for the 2026 session. Meanwhile, a New Hampshire House committee recently discussed plans to move forward with a bill to legalize marijuana altogether–even though members accept that it is unlikely to advance beyond the chamber given opposition in the Senate and the threat of a veto by the governor. — Marijuana Moment is tracking hundreds of cannabis, psychedelics and drug policy bills in state legislatures and Congress this year. Patreon supporters pledging at least $25/month get access to our interactive maps, charts and hearing calendar so they don’t miss any developments. Learn more about our marijuana bill tracker and become a supporter on Patreon to get access. — “We know where it’s going to go. Let’s send a virtue signal,” the sponsor of the legalization proposal, Rep. Jared Sullivan (D), said during a House Commerce and Consumer Affairs Committee hearing last month. “Let them be the ones that are pissing off voters who care about this.” Sullivan ultimately made a persuasive defense of moving forward with his original bill, pointing out that the House has repeatedly passed similar legalization legislation and that the chamber should stand its ground, forcing the Senate and governor to again go on record with their opposition to a policy popular among voters. Meanwhile, after the House added provisions to a Senate-passed bill that would allow medical marijuana patients to grow cannabis at home, those measures were stripped in conference. Gov. Kelly Ayotte (R) also said in August that her position on marijuana legalization would not change even if the federal government moved forward with rescheduling the plant—a policy change President Donald Trump is actively considering. “If federal law changes, I have to comply with federal law,” Ayotte said. “But my position has been, and continues to be, that we should not legalize marijuana in the future.” The post New Hampshire Lawmakers Approve Bill To Let Medical Marijuana Dispensaries Convert To For-Profit Businesses appeared first on Marijuana Moment.

  28. A new cannabis compound that appears to have “remarkable antioxidant and skin anti-inflammatory” properties has been discovered by scientists. The isolated cannabinoid, classified as cannabizetol (CBGD), shows promise for the expanding base of knowledge regarding the therapeutic and medicinal potential of the marijuana plant. Cannabizetol is formed when two cannabinoid molecules bind together with a methylene bridge, the researchers explained in a new paper. Aside from its promising medical findings, cannabizetol is also one of the rare compounds in a class known as dimeric cannabinoids, one of only four dimeric molecules currently identified in cannabis. “We demonstrate that cannabizetol exhibits remarkable antioxidant and skin anti-inflammatory activity, significantly higher than that observed for the known dimeric cannabinoid cannabitwinol,” the study says. “These results highlight cannabizetol as a promising bioactive metabolite with potential dermatological applications.” The Italian and Swiss authors, writing in the September 2025 issue of the peer-reviewed Journal of Natural Products, said their results “suggest that among the many still unknown cannabinoids there are also methylene-bridged dimers of other cannabinoids, including dimers composed of two different cannabinoids, with potential biological activities of great interest.” “The synthesis of analytical standards could be useful in facilitating the identification of these compounds in cannabis extracts,” they wrote—adding that “natural dimeric compounds are of considerable importance, as they enable further exploration of chemical space, potentially leading to novel biological activities beyond those of their respective monomers.” The researchers used a number of inflammatory genes to test against CBGD. After a six-hour treatment, “the anti-inflammatory activity of the molecules was evaluated on 84 inflammatory genes using an RT-PCR array (RT2 Profiler PCR Array Human Inflammatory Cytokines and Receptors, QIAGEN S.r.l., Hilden, Germany), as previously described” they wrote. The chemists examined NF-κB, a molecular pathway that seems to serve as a master switch for inflammation, given the prolific nature of its impact across a wide range of cells that lead to the condition. Cannabinzetol appeared to show significant potential to inhibiting inflammation. “Several cannabinoids have demonstrated biological activities, making Cannabis sativa particularly attractive as a source of potential medicinal active principles,” they noted. This study comes as the sophistication of testing equipment in the past decades has significantly increased, allowing scientists to study an ever growing array of cannabinoids. The number of known cannabinoids is over 100, though many require further study to characterize them. “The significant biological activity of these dimeric cannabinoids prompted us to optimize the synthetic approach by exploiting the flow chemistry technology,” the authors wrote. Growing on past research, this study is groundbreaking. The primary intoxicating compound in the marijuana plant, well known to the public, is THC, isolated and discovered by an Israeli scientist in 1964. It wasn’t until the 1990s that the endocannabinoid system was identified in rats and humans. Building on that knowledge, chemists isolated other compounds with potential therapeutic effect, including cannabigerol and cannabinol. This comes as a cascading flow of new research on cannabinoids are classified. Scientists reported in May 2025 that they identified 33 “significant markers” in the cannabis genome that “significantly influence cannabinoid production”—a finding they say promises to drive the development of new plant varieties with specific cannabinoid profiles. Additionally, researchers announced in April 2025 that they successfully identified a new cannabinoid—cannabielsoxa—produced by the marijuana plant as well as a number of other compounds “reported for the first time from the flowers of C. sativa.” The team of government and university researchers out of South Korea also evaluated 11 compounds in cannabis for antitumor effects in neuroblastoma cells, finding that seven “revealed strong inhibitory activity.” The post Scientists Discover New Cannabis Compound With ‘Remarkable Antioxidant And Skin Anti-Inflammatory’ Benefits appeared first on Marijuana Moment.

  29. A Kentucky medical marijuana cultivation facility has harvested its first yield of cannabis, and patients could gain access to it by next month, a top regulator says. Meanwhile, the governor says licensed businesses are about to “grow a whole lot more” as the program gets underway. Cannon Armstrong, executive director of the Office of Medical Cannabis (OMC), said one of the state’s cultivators “produced their first harvest, and it’s up to the cultivator and the licensee on where they move and when they move on that.” “I suspect that if we’re going to try and say timeframes—that it’ll definitely be before the end of the year, we’re hopeful that it may be November,” he told WAVE 3. That pushes back the timeline slightly after Armstrong previously estimated a few weeks ago that sales could begin this month—but Gov. Andy Beshear (D) said this is just the start of a robust medical cannabis market in the commonwealth. “Since taking office, my administration has been committed to providing access to health care and safe communities for all Kentuckians,” the governor said. “One of our priorities is ensuring that Kentuckians that are suffering from serious medical issues like cancer, PTSD or multiple sclerosis can have safe access to medical cannabis as soon as possible to get the relief they need.” He also announced that, although licensed operators are actively growing cannabis plants to bring to market, “we’re about to grow a whole lot more,” adding that as of Thursday, OMC approved “another cultivator to begin cultivation activities here in Kentucky, and this one is a big one.” Beshear was talking about Natural State GreenGrass CannaCo, a tier III cultivation facility, which is “one of the two largest cultivation facilities in Kentucky.” “They’ll eventually expand all 25,000 square feet of cultivation space,” he said. “This operator and so many more will help us ensure for years to come that Kentuckians suffering from serious medical conditions can get the relief they deserve.” Last month, Beshear said he thought medical marijuana would be available to Kentucky patients by the end of 2025. “The medical marijuana program is moving forward,” he said at a press briefing at the time. “I think most of our dispensaries now have their home address [and] are set about where they’re going to be, but [for] some of the inspections that have to happen in dispensaries, they have to have product that’s there,” he said. “So I do believe they’ll be operating before the end of the year.” Those comments came roughly a month after the governor announced that the state’s first medical cannabis dispensary has officially been approved for operations, calling it “another step forward as we work to ensure Kentuckians with serious medical conditions have access to the medicine they need and deserve. He previously touted an earlier “milestone” in the state’s forthcoming medical marijuana program, with a licensed cultivator producing “the first medical cannabis inventory in Kentucky history.” Beshear’s office has said that other cannabis licensees, including processors and testing labs, are expected to become operational soon. In July, Beshear sent a letter to President Donald Trump, urging him to reject congressional spending bill provisions that would prevent the Justice Department from rescheduling marijuana. In the letter to the president, he emphasized that a pending proposal to move cannabis from Schedule I to Schedule III under the Controlled Substances Act (CSA) is something “you supported in your presidential campaign.” “That process should be allowed to play out. Americans deserve leadership that won’t move the goalposts on them in the middle of the game,” Beshear said, noting that he was among the tens of thousands who submitted public comments in favor of the reform after it was initiated under the Biden administration, “demonstrating broad public interest in rescheduling.” “I joined that effort because this is about helping people. Rescheduling would provide suffering patients the relief they need,” the governor said. “It would ensure communities are safer—because legal medical products reduce the illicit market. It would provide new, meaningful research on health benefits.” Beshear also mentioned a letter to DEA he signed onto last year urging rescheduling, “because the jury is no longer out on marijuana. It has medical benefits.” Back on the state level, the governor recently said he acknowledges that “it’s taken longer than we would have liked” to stand up the industry since he signed medical marijuana legalization into law in 2023. In recognition of that delayed implementation, he recently signed an executive order to waive renewal fees for patients who get their cards this year so that they don’t get charged again before retailers open. And another order he signed providing protections for qualified patients who obtain medical marijuana outside of Kentucky “will stay in place.” Beshear separately announced in May that the state has launched a new online directory that lets people see where medical cannabis dispensaries will be opening near them. He emphasized that the state has been working to deliver access to patients “at the earliest possible date,” and that involved expediting the licensing process. The governor in January also ceremonially awarded the commonwealth’s first medical marijuana cards. — Marijuana Moment is tracking hundreds of cannabis, psychedelics and drug policy bills in state legislatures and Congress this year.

That came after bipartisan Kentucky senators filed legislation that similarly called on the state’s federal representatives to take corrective action, which Beshear said he supports but would like to see even more sweeping change on the federal level. The federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) warned Kentucky residents late last year that, if they choose to participate in the state’s medical marijuana program, they will be prohibited from buying or possessing firearms under federal law. As far as the implementation of the state’s medical cannabis law goes, Beshear said in his State of the Commonwealth address in January that patients will have access to cannabis sometime “this year.” He also later shared tips for patients to find a doctor and get registered to participate in the cannabis program. Health practitioners have been able to start assessing patients for recommendations since the beginning of December. While there currently aren’t any up-and-running dispensaries available to patients, Beshear has further affirmed that an executive order he signed in 2023 will stay in effect in the interim, protecting patients who possess medical cannabis purchased at out-of-state licensed retailers. During last year’s November election, Kentucky also saw more than 100 cities and counties approve local ordinances to allow medical cannabis businesses in their jurisdictions. The governor said the election results demonstrate that “the jury is no longer out” on the issue that is clearly supported by voters across partisan and geographical lines.
