As revelers around the nation celebrated the start of 2020, Illinois had a particular reason: Illinois is the first state in the nation to successfully legalize and launch a state adult-use cannabis market through its legislature.

And there is good reason to think that there are more new markets coming in 2020, whether through New Jersey’s ballot initiative or others proceeding through legislation. Regardless of the path of reform, Illinois’ cannabis launch is an excellent reminder that this is an area that is never static for long.

Of course, in such a rapidly evolving, highly regulated space, it is essential to stay on top of the latest changes.
