Dix said Lott’s “research and conclusions were found to be false by a number of well-respected researchers, such as John Donohue of Stanford; Donohue and Ian Ayers concluded in The Stanford Law Review that Lott’s thesis was “without credible statistical su
Whether the MORE Act passes the Senate remains uncertain, but some cannabis legislation is finding success.
On Tuesday night, the Senate passed the Cannabidiol and Marihuana Research Expansion Act. The move follows the House s passage of the bill last week.
The Significance Of The Bill

Other critical parameters in the legislation would allow physicians to discuss marijuana risks and benefits with patients.
Additionally, the bill would also encourage the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to develop medicines derived from cannabis while requiring the department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to file a report detailing the potential benefits of cannabis use.
