“This announcement today is a major step towards the end of prohibition of cannabis in the largest economy in the world and RWB has aggressively claimed our stake and positioned ourselves for the impending explosion of growth in the United States” stated RWB CEO and Chairman Brad Rogers. “I think the joint statement issued to pursue and prioritize comprehensive cannabis reform legislation in the current session is very welcome news for all cannabis stakeholders; whether they be medical patients, recreational users, employed in the cannabis sector, or investors”.
