The Feds don't care if it is used for recreational or medical use. I can't believe you don't know this. In fact, Colorado Marijuana businesses aren't allowed to use banks. So when they have to pay utility and insurance bills they have to use cash. One ounce is a felony.

" ABA Position
Currently, thirty-five states, the District of Columbia, Guam and Puerto Rico have all legalized the use of marijuana to some degree. Yet the possession, distribution or sale of marijuana remains illegal under federal law, which means any contact with money that can be traced back to state marijuana operations could be considered money laundering and expose a bank to significant legal, operational and regulatory risk.

In addition to growers and retailers, there are vendors and suppliers, landlords and employees that are indirectly tied to the cannabis industry, thus posing legal risk for banks serving such entities and individuals, as indirect connections to marijuana revenues are hard, if not impossible, for banks to identify and avoid.

What the House of Representatives voted on in 2019 and approved does not make it the law.

If the ABA is in support of it,what's not to like.....seems there is a disconnect from the conservatives.

You might think it is because of Republicans but President Biden is very much against legalizing pot at the federal level.
