Episode 257 – Illinois Cannabis Sales Drop as Lawmakers Revisit Search Rules

Illinois lawmakers are once again trying to fix one of the most confusing parts of the state’s cannabis law. In this live broadcast, Cole breaks down House Bill 4782, a proposal that would prevent vehicle searches based solely on the smell of cannabis. The discussion explains how recent Illinois Supreme Court rulings treated raw and burnt cannabis differently and why a small wording change could have big implications for civil liberties.

The show also takes a look at newly released Illinois cannabis sales figures, including revised data tied to the state’s transition to a new tracking system. As always, the conversation is live, with viewer comments, questions, and calls shaping the discussion along the way.
