The latest action as of 12/28 was to re-refer the bill to the Rules Committee which happens when the deadline for a vote expires. At this point it either dies or is...

    How do you get start-up money for a Co-Op or a Dispensary?

    It's the same for many small businesses - money isn't easy to come by these days. Got a house? Mortgage it. Friends & Family? Hit them up. Credit cards? Use them. Got time? Get a second job. Good luck! It takes hard work to follow your dreams.
