Cannabis law can be confusing, to say the least. The United States has not yet legalized cannabis at the federal level, and state laws on pot differ wildly, even in states where recreational cannabis is legal.

At GreenState, we’re doing our best to keep you updated on the latest in cannabis law in the US. That’s why we partnered with Legalization Nation, an explanatory comic strip aiming to educate consumers and patients on the complexities of the emerging legal cannabis industry.

Legalization Nation covers cannabis from a ground-level perspective, addressing issues like the black market, patients’ rights, corporate advantage and more, and compares state cannabis legalization policies to make sense of a daunting landscape through a familiar and accessible medium.

This week, Legalization Nation is talking about the legacy cannabis market.
