One of the most exciting things about the state of cannabis policy is the fact that all these federal regulations are being overturned at the state level, or at least challenged right down to the local level. While these are all challenging battles, one that has been won is the push to allow marijuana in legalized states to be sold on Amazon via the Prime Now program. With the growing popularity of cannabis, Amazon has been working hard to make sure Prime members in legalized states have access to it—and now they can!
Amazon says it will begin providing support for Federal legalization of cannabis on its Prime Now app and website. After the government’s decision to legalize cannabis, Amazon and Prime Now will sell state-licensed products to customers.
Marijuana lovers know how wonderful it is to relieve stress during the day. If, like many people, you work in a stressful environment, cannabis can be your salvation. I was a waitress for years. It was a very stressful, fast-paced and certainly exhausting job. If you’ve never worked in the hospitality industry, you may be surprised at the kind of people waiters and waitresses have to deal with. It’s not uncommon for waiters and waitresses to drink like fish when it comes to binge drinking to relieve the stress of the day. Binge drinking will always be popular. However, binge drinking, where you drink until you pass out and vomit, is becoming less and less popular. Many people prefer a responsible combination of alcohol and cannabis use. A drink or two, then some weed, is what most users use to get into the right state of mind. Some people in California choose to stay sober and use cannabis normally. People are more likely to use cannabis to relieve stress than alcohol if employers do not test them for cannabis in mandatory checks. I know many heavy equipment drivers who drink heavily and take painkillers prescribed by their doctors. However, they will not touch cannabis because of the random drug testing. Because marijuana is socially accepted as an illegal drug, people choose to drink and take prescription drugs to combat stress, putting their health at risk. This kind of thinking bothers me. Fortunately, this situation seems to be over now. A growing number of states are beginning to legalize cannabis for medical and recreational use, despite the fact that the US federal government currently classifies cannabis as a Class 1 drug. 
Amazon announces support for federal cannabis legalization
Amazon recently announced big news showing that the tech, supply and media giant is a big supporter of cannabis. Amazon recently announced that it supports the legalization of cannabis at the federal level. In addition to the endorsements, Amazon has announced that it will review its policy on cannabis use in the workplace. The CEO of Amazon’s global consumer division, Dave Clark, was quoted in the media: The change in state law regarding marijuana means that Amazon will no longer include the substance in the pre-employment drug tests the company conducts, and it will now be treated the same way as alcohol. Let’s hope Amazon has enough influence to open the closed eyes and deaf ears of the US federal government. Cannabis is currently classified by the United States federal government as a Schedule 1 substance, reserved for substances deemed to have no medical value and a very high potential for abuse.
It’s not about getting high – it’s about balancing the ECS
Marijuana use is not always about getting high. In many cases, people can use cannabis without seeing or feeling its effects. For example, a person may ingest a cannabis capsule, smoke a joint, or vaporize before going to bed. The effects of cannabis are not felt because they are asleep at the time. When they wake up, the feeling of being high is not there. They go about their daily lives doing everything as usual, but when they are injured, cannabis is found in their system. With today’s stupid drug tests, people can use cocaine on the weekend and be clean the following week. On the other hand, if you smoke a joint, the THC can stay in your system for two weeks or more. Amazon’s announcement to support the MORE (Marijuana Opportunity Reinvestment and Expungement) Act is a great sign of change and a strong show of support for the cannabis community, which has fought to end the draconian prohibition of cannabis since its inception. Dave Clark, spokesman for Amazon, said the company will continue to conduct drug and alcohol testing in the workplace after each incident. He also expressed hope that other companies will follow the path that Amazon has taken: We hope that other employers will join us and that the politicians will act quickly to pass this bill.
