The amendments will be borrowed from a separate federal legalization bill, the Cannabis Administration and Opportunity Act (CAOA), and will include measures such as resentencing for current federal cannabis prisoners. Despite uncertainties around the new GOP House speaker's stance on cannabis, key Senate Republicans are prepared to move forward with the legislation.
