Senate Banking Committee Chairman Sherrod Brown (D-OH) hopes to announce the scheduling of a marijuana banking bill vote in his panel “in the next few days,” with plans to hold the markup during the current work session that ends October 6. But he also acknowledged that there are still some “outlying issues” that need to be resolved among members.
While a committee spokesperson told Marijuana Moment on Monday that the vote would not be taking place next week as some cannabis industry observers have speculated, Brown says the actual markup date could be scheduled imminently as senators move toward the finish line in negotiations.
“We need to make sure we have enough votes. And I mean, there are still some differences some members still have,” the chairman told Punchbowl News on Monday night. “I’m not going to publicly talk about negotiating and what people are asking for or not. There are still some outlying issues—minor ones. But we hope to get people onboard and get a strong vote.”
