Players can visit their game library to see which of their games are available by looking for a c

A small bipartisan group of U.S. House of Representatives members on Thursday reintroduced the long-stalled STATES Act, a pro-marijuana bill that would both nullify the hated 280E tax provision for cannabis companies and also exempt states that have legalized marijuana from federal interference.

A trio of active lawsuits spread across three U.S. states aim to upend the cannabis track-and-trace system provided by Florida-based Metrc.
