On Thursday, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) refiled the Medical Cannabis Research Act, as a lame-duck session in the current Congress is poised to wrap up, reported Marijuana Moment.
Even though the text of the newest version of the bill is not available yet, a prior version of the measure introduced in Congress in 2019 sought the Justice Department to approve additional manufacturers of research-grade cannabis and protect institutions looking to study cannabis in addition to directing the VA to inform veterans about possible participation in cannabis studies that the government approves.
In addition, the initial version of the bill dates back to 2018. That measure got approval from the GOP-controlled House Judiciary Committee.

The New Jersey Economic Development Authority (NJEDA) Board wrapped up the year by forming the Cannabis Equity Grant Program, which will support start-ups by assisting with early-stage expenses, such as regulatory fees, rental costs, utilities and wages, as well as technical training.
The agency has set aside $10 million in state funding for the cause.
"The establishment of the Cannabis Equity Grant Program will help aspiring small business owners meet start-up expenses in a pivotal sector within our state's ever-growing economy," Governor Phil Murphy said in the press release. "Most importantly, the program will erode considerable barriers to access for communities of color, which this program will help to equip with the resources they need not just to enter, but thrive, in this exciting new industry."
Under the program, which is open to businesses that already hold a conditional cannabis license, launched after March 2020 and with up to 50 employees - social equity applicants have an opportunity to obtain up to $250,000 in funding.
