If Trump Legalizes Cannabis on the Federal Level, the Sector Could Boom

LAS VEGAS, June 21, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --

FN Media Group Presents Microcapspeculators.com News Commentary 

President Donald Trump said recently that he was inclined to support a bipartisan effort in Congress to ease the U.S. ban on marijuana, a proposal that would dramatically reshape the nation's legal landscape for cannabis users and businesses.
