Cannabis rescheduling is not as simple as “Trump rescheduled cannabis.” States are interpreting rescheduling completely differently depending on their license structure. These tiny details are widening the gap between potential winners and losers. In this episode, we break down what actually changed, what is still unresolved, and why rescheduling may already be picking winners and losers. This week, we sit down with Hirsh Jain to discuss: • What the April order and June 29 hearing actually mean • How the DEA registration portal could impact operators • The three pathways for interstate commerce • Why state license structure may determine who is positioned for a national market
