In this episode of The Cole Memo, we break down Illinois' record-breaking cannabis sales in 2024 and explore what these numbers really mean. While the state touts economic growth, we examine the growing divide between corporate operators and social equity businesses, as well as the ongoing battle over hemp-derived cannabinoids. Plus, we discuss Governor Pritzker’s stance on the “unchecked” hemp market and its impact on legal cannabis businesses. Later, we dive into Illinois’ cannabis policy issues, including home cultivation, high taxes, and the need for market reforms. We also touch on breaking news about former House Speaker Michael Madigan’s conviction and what it signals for the state’s political landscape.
