Marijuana blog will delve into issues of budding industry

As Massachusetts lawmakers prepare to dig in on marijuana policy, a Boston law firm has launched a blog that will delve into legal developments, municipal issues, regulatory and policy changes, corporate considerations and the expected appointment of members to the Cannabis Control Commission.

The Foley Hoag blog's authors have experience with the medical marijuana industry, data privacy, employment, banking and finance and trademark issues. They are former deputy attorney general Kevin Conroy, Jesse Alderman, Christopher Feudo, and Rachel Hutchinson.

The first entry on the Massachusetts Marijuana Counsel blog was posted Feb. 10 and outlined proposed changes to the ballot law approved Nov. 8, which legalized the adult use, possession and sale of marijuana. "The Massachusetts legislature continues to chip away at Question 4, the ballot question that made marijuana legal for adult use throughout the Commonwealth," the attorneys wrote.

Legislative leaders may name members this week to a new Committee on Marijuana, which is being formed with the intent of vetting changes to the ballot law.
