Federal, nationwide legalization is a development that will potentially have a profound impact on the Humboldt cannabis industry. And while we've been hearing about its inevitability for a long time now, it remains uncertain when, or even if, it will ultimately happen. In our April edition, we took a look at the state of legalization in the US, both at the federal and state levels, and we took a special look at the legalization effort in Idaho, where advocates are facing especially aggressive opposition from the state legislature. Our guests were Jackee Winters of Kind Idaho and Russ Belville of the Idaho Citizens Coalition.
