A collection of congressional legislators are urging House leaders to include cannabis provisions in a spending bill.
Earlier in 2021, the group disseminated a previous sign-on letter to increase assistance for the cannabis amendments.
The amendments were done so floor votes by the House Rules Committee in July.
The cannabis language has been introduced in prior sessions as well which was approved by the House in 2020 and 2019.
The language would extend that protection at a time when an increased number of states are voting to legalize marijuana for adult use.
More specifically policies that terminate workers for using cannabis that is in compliance with state law.
But it’s yet no action has taken place on whether the Senate will follow suit.
