No Safe Banking for You! – The Safe Banking Act Gets Removed from the National Defense Authorization Act in the Senate

They say “one step forward, two steps back” is the motto in the marijuana industry and it appears to be true as after the House added the Safe Banking Act to the National Defense Authorization Act, the Senate removed it.  At this point there is little hope for passage of the Safe Banking Act in early 2022, but Rep. Ed Perimutter of Colorado plans to file a last-ditch amendment to the NDAA at the Rule Committee in an attempt to add the Safe Banking Act back into the NDAA.
