SAFER Banking Is Back With Real Momentum | TTB Weekly Recap

A lot happened in cannabis this week and Shadd Dales breaks it all down in the latest Trade To Black Weekly Recap, presented by FRE Pouch.The biggest story? Who ends up as the next U.S. Attorney General could literally decide whether cannabis rescheduling gets done or stalls out. Todd Blanche is holding it down as Acting AG and by most accounts he’s pragmatic, knows the file, and is seen as a positive for the industry. But if Lee Zeldin steps in permanently, the timeline and scope of reform gets a lot murkier. This one is worth watching closely.SAFER Banking is back — eighth time around — and this time there’s actually reason to believe it has legs. Fourteen Senate cosponsors including Republicans, and with rescheduling momentum building behind it, analysts are saying it could cut dispensary operating costs by up to 10% if it passes.Florida had its best month of 2026 in March, pulling in $176.8 million and closing Q1 at $484 million, up 7% year-over-year. Still medical only. Still growing. Massachusetts is overhauling its regulatory setup as the market hits its stride. And Canada just dropped data showing legal cannabis sales up 6.1% while alcohol slid 1.6% — younger consumers are swapping drinks for cannabis and that trend isn’t slowing down.On the company side, Tilray Brands (NASDAQ: TLRY) launched PORTAL, a high-potency line pushing 95-99% THC. Grown Rogue International (CSE: GRIN | OTC: GRUSF) put up strong 2025 numbers with revenue up 22% and EBITDA up 42%. And Ascend Wellness Holdings (CSE: AAWH | OTC: AAWH) launched ROOTS, a mentorship and training program built to help smaller social equity operators actually compete.#CannabisNews #CannabisInvesting #SAFERBanking #CannabisRescheduling #TDRCannabis #TradeToBlack #FREPouch #CannabisStocks #CannabisPolicy #CannabisIndustryWant to see more Cannabis Reform videos?🎬 • How Media Gets the Cannabis Youth Conversa... 🎬 • Idaho Lawmakers Fighting to Keep Medical C... 🎬 • Missouri Moves to Ban Hemp THC Products | ... 🎬 • What’s Really Happening With Cannabis Resc...
