Our protocol

We don't lift summaries from affiliate blogs. Every status change is anchored to a primary source — bill text, administrative rule, or counsel memo — and reviewed before publication.

  • Direct statute audits

    Researchers link directly to legislature PDFs and administrative-rule filings. No intermediaries.

  • Counsel review cadence

    Major changes (Legal → Banned) require sign-off by consulting hemp counsel before publish.

  • Daily watchlist

    Bills under 30 days from a vote are flagged in a watchlist with email alerts.
