On today's show we are talking about the recently introduced piece of legislation in the US Congress dated December 5. There is a corresponding bill that was introduced in the Senate by Democratic members of both the house and the senate.  The Congressional Bill is called the “End Hedge Fund Control of American Homes Act”.  The second bill is a Senate Bill called the American Neighborhoods Protection act.  The Senate version of the bill would limit ownership to 75 single family homes. Those owners who continue to hold these properties shall be subject to an annual tax of $10,000 per unit for each year that they hold the property. The taxes collected by the IRS shall go into a newly established fund that is designed to help create and subsidize affordable housing.  Single family homes in some markets are experiencing a large number of transactions being purchased by large corporate buyers. But still they represent a tiny fraction of the transactions in the market.  The stories being reported widely across the internet of large corporate buys purchasing a dominant share of homes in the market is simply false. Are big Wall Street investors really buying 44% of homes this year? The answer is no — not even close. ----------- Host: Victor Menasce email: podcast@victorjm.com

Congressional Bill to form a Federal Marijuana Commission | Cannabis News November 2022This week, senator John Hickenlooper announced his plans to introduce a bill before #congress to form a federal marijuana commission to oversee #cannabis reform measures on the federal level. This comes as good news to those who have been pushing for more sensible cannabis policy at the national level.The proposed commission would be tasked with studying how best to regulate cannabis, taking into account the different approaches that states have taken so far. It would also be responsible for making recommendations to Congress on how to deal with issues such as taxation, licensing, and enforcement.This is a welcome development, as it shows that there is growing interest in finding a workable solution to the conflict between state and federal laws on cannabis. With the formation of this commission, we may finally see some progress on this issue.Also in the headlines, it was recently announced that Sean "Diddy" Combs is partnering with Casa Verde Capital, a cannabis-focused investment firm, to launch the largest black owned cannabis company in the world. This is huge news in the cannabis industry, as black-owned businesses are still relatively rare.#Diddy plans to purchase assets in Illinois, New York, and Massachusetts - three states that have legalized recreational cannabis. This will give the company a strong foothold in the Northeast US market.The company will focus on creating quality products and brands that appeal to a wide range of consumers. This is a smart move, as the legal cannabis industry is still in its early stages and there is a lot of room for growth.Tune into Cannabis Legalization News with host Tom Howard and Miggy420 where we discuss these stories and more.
