    In total, Viola has raised $34 million and is valued over $100 million. Harrington invested $6 million himself and owns about 40% of the company. Other investors include some of “his guys” from the NBA, including Ben Gordon, J.R. Smith, Kenyon Martin, Josh Childress, and DeMarcus Cousins. But selling weed is only part of Viola’s mission. Harrington’s main goal is to help Black and Brown entrepreneurs in the cannabis industry build equity in one of America’s fastest-growing economies.

    The North Carolina state Senate voted to pass medical marijuana legalization in an initial vote on Thursday. The measure must pass the Senate a second time before heading to the state House, where Republicans repeatedly have blocked legal medical cannabis access. State lawmakers on Wednesday added medical marijuana into a bill originally meant to regulate hemp. The updated bill would legalize cannabis for people with a “debilitating medical condition,” the Associated Press reported. That legislation passed the Senate with a vote of 33-9; nine Republicans voted in favor of the bill, according to AP. The bill is scheduled for a second Senate vote on Monday. 🌐 Read full article on @mjbizdaily here — https://lnkd.in/gGEmVZqY #cannabisnews #northcarolina #tgz #thegreenzone

New Yorkers are also allowed to have up to five pounds of trimmed weed “and the equivalent weight in concentrates” in their home or on their property, according to officials. “Landlords can only refuse to lease space to or penalize a tenant if they risk losing federal benefits,” according to the OCM.
