Ohio’s medical marijuana dispensaries prep for adult-use green light
Ohioans will likely be able to buy recreational marijuana as soon as mid-June, earlier than the timeline outlined by the initiated statute they voted to pass last fall, and existing medical marijuana dispensaries say they plan to be prepared for the state’s non-medical green light.
The state’s joint committee on agency rule review (JCARR) meets May 13, when it’s scheduled to vote on its first…

U.S. solar companies, imperiled by price collapse, demand protection. (Washington Post)
Several of the largest American solar manufacturing companies are demanding aggressive action against cheap imports, arguing in a petition filed Wednesday with the Commerce Department that firms in four Asian countries are illegally flooding the U.S. market with Chinese-subsidized panels.
Though the panels are not produced in China, the petitioners allege many are made in factories linked to China-based companies that benefit from massive price supports.
The complaint comes amid a glut of solar panels on the global market that has driven prices down by 50 percent over the past year, with the International Energy Agency projecting prices will fall even further. Manufacturers are currently making two solar panels for every one that is getting installed, according to the IEA. The oversupply is imperiling a boom in U.S. manufacturing driven by President Biden’s signature climate bill, the Inflation Reduction Act.
“We are seeking to enforce the rules, remedy the injury to our domestic solar industry and signal that the U.S. will not be a dumping ground for foreign solar products,” said Tim Brightbill, an attorney for the American Alliance for Solar Manufacturing Trade Committee, the group of U.S. firms that filed the petition. The group includes such industry giants as Ohio-based First Solar and Qcells, which has used Inflation Reduction Act subsidies to invest in huge new manufacturing facilities in Georgia.
In an email to The Washington Post, Chinese Embassy spokesman Liu Pengyu said his country’s “leading edge in new energy is gained through strong performance and full-on market competition, not government subsidies.”
“China has been and will always be open to industrial cooperation,” the statement said. “We hope relevant countries will embrace fair competition and work with China to contribute to a world-class, market-oriented and law-based environment for trade and economic cooperation.”
But the petition is also renewing tensions in the American solar industry, as installers of panels and developers of large solar farms warn that placing restrictions on imports could hurt consumers and raise prices. If the petitioners succeed, companies that buy solar panels from businesses in any of the four nations cited could be subject to steep penalties, which federal trade officials could enforce retroactively.
The industry only recently emerged from a bruising battle over the enforcement of trade laws, after the administration found Chinese companies were illegally sidestepping them by producing panels in China but then finishing assembly in other countries to avoid tariffs.

The Senate approved a measure Wednesday evening to override President Biden's move last year to allow Chinese solar panel makers to avoid tariffs for 24 months.
In a bipartisan 56-41 vote, the Senate voted in favor of the resolution which was sponsored by Sen. Rick Scott, R-Fla., and co-sponsored by Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., the latest congressional action to face an expected veto from President Biden. The vote comes less than a week after the House passed a companion resolution with 12 Democrats voting in favor.
"This measure is pro-American jobs and anti-Chinese forced and child labor. It's that simple," Scott remarked on the Senate floor ahead of the vote.
"It's time for the Senate to finish the job in Congress and send this to President Biden's desk. This isn't partisan, it's about human rights," he continued. "I will not stand by, and I hope the U.S. Senate will not stand by, and accept excuses to turn a blind eye to communist China's human rights atrocities."
CONGRESS GEARS UP TO SMACK DOWN PRESIDENT BIDEN'S CHINESE SOLAR HANDOUT
Overall, Chinese companies control a more than 80% share in the global solar panel industry, controlling the supply chain in all the manufacturing stages of the product, according to the International Energy Agency. The Chinese solar industry has been tied to forced labor in China's Xinjiang province.
READ ON THE FOX NEWS APP
In addition to Manchin, several Democrats including Sens. Sherrod Brown, D-Ohio, Ron Wyden, D-Ore., Bob Casey, D-Pa., Tammy Baldwin, D-Wis., and John Fetterman, D-Pa., voted with Republicans in favor of the legislation.
"Ohioans are manufacturing solar panels that can power our economy," Brown said in remarks of his own Wednesday. "They just need a level playing field. You can’t say you want American manufacturing to lead the world, while allowing Chinese companies, often subsidized by the Chinese government, to skirt the rules and dump solar panels into the U.S."
"This comes down to whose side you’re on: Do you stand with workers in Ohio, or do you stand with the Chinese Communist Party?"
CHINESE TECH COMPANIES ARE EXPLOITING US GREEN ENERGY GOALS, FORMER STATE DEPARTMENT OFFICIALS WARN
In June 2022, Biden implemented the 24-month moratorium on the enforcement of solar panel anti-circumvention tariffs introduced under the Obama administration to protect U.S. companies. The White House characterized the move as a two-year "bridge" that would allow companies to build solar panel production capabilities on U.S. soil.
The move, however, came after the Commerce Department said months earlier it would investigate whether Chinese manufacturers were routing solar panels through countries in Southeast Asia to avoid U.S. tariffs. And in December, the agency published its preliminary findings showing four large solar companies had routed products through Cambodia, Malaysia and Vietnam to circumvent duties.
The Commerce Department is expected to release its final findings in May. Still, the White House vowed last week that Biden would veto the resolution passed Wednesday if it made it to his desk regardless of the findings.
"From day one, the President has prioritized investments that will create good-paying jobs and build secure supply chains in the United States, including for solar energy," the White House said on April 24. "The Administration is working aggressively to support domestic solar panel manufacturing."
DEM CONGRESSWOMAN SILENT ON WHY SHE SIGNED HUSH AGREEMENT INVOLVING CHINESE TECH COMPANY
The resolution, meanwhile, earned the support of pro-tariff groups like the Coalition for a Prosperous America and human rights groups like the Uyghur Human Rights Project.
Environmental groups and green energy organizations like the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) have opposed it.
"We are urging senators to see through this political charade and examine the facts at hand," SEIA President and CEO Abigail Ross Hopper said last week.
"The United States cannot produce enough solar panels and cells to meet demand, and the remaining 14 months of this moratorium gives us time to close the gap," she continued. "The United States can get there and become a global leader in clean energy manufacturing and development. Overturning the moratorium at this stage puts that future at risk."
Following the vote Wednesday, Rep. Dan Kildee, D-Mich., who sponsored the House version of the bill alongside Rep. Bill Posey, R-Fla., applauded the Senate vote.
"I am pleased to see the U.S. Senate, in a strong bipartisan vote, pass my legislation that supports American workers," Kildee said in a statement. "We must hold those who violate U.S. trade laws accountable, including China."
"When we fail to enforce our trade laws, it hurts Michigan and American businesses and workers. I will continue standing up for fair trade and the American worker, including support efforts to expand the domestic manufacturing of solar panels."

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/10/13/pelosi-lessons-next-gop-speaker-house/
When progressive hard-liners used to come to Nancy Pelosi with yet with another unrealistic demand for action from their wish list, the then-speaker had a standard reply ready: “I agree with you. I have those signs in my basement from 30 years ago. But right now, you’re in the Congress of the United States. We’re not on the streets with the signs.”
Pelosi would tell them that when they had 218 votes behind them, a majority in the House, she’d be happy to talk to them again: “But otherwise, recognize that we have to build consensus ... and live to fight another day.”
The speaker’s role comes with many such moments, she recalled in an interview in her office on Thursday; as we talked, Republicans who now hold a tenuous majority in the House were huddled across the street in the Capitol, unable to come together to select their own leader to take over the wreckage that Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) has left behind.
Pelosi and others who held the gavel learned — but the deposed McCarthy never did — that one of the hardest and most vital things a speaker must do is say no, sometimes to friends and ideological allies. At times, her majority was so narrow she could afford to lose no more than three votes. But without a leader willing and powerful enough to summon that kind of fortitude, the House is ungovernable.
McCarthy’s constant appeasement of a handful of bellicose GOP members is what got us to this pitiful moment. He put their hard-line legislation on the floor knowing it would go no further, gave them key committee assignments — and even signed what was effectively the death warrant of his own speakership by agreeing to allow the rule in which any member could call for a vote to vacate the chair.
All of this should be an object lesson to whoever gets the job next. As departing speaker John A. Boehner (R-Ohio) advised his own successor, Paul D. Ryan (R-Wis.): “You can promise effort, but don’t promise results.” Both Boehner and Ryan saw their leadership undermined by the demands of a rising hard-right faction within their party, but it was McCarthy who ceded effective control of the chamber to them.
“Part of the job of the speaker is to manage reality rather than fantasy,” former speaker Newt Gingrich (R-Ga.) told me.
For Pelosi, who had a solidly liberal record, an early test came shortly after Democrats regained their majority in the 2006 election and elevated her to the speakership. The big issue in that election had been the Iraq War, and she had been one of the most outspoken opponents to it. Which is why many in her caucus felt betrayed when she did not stand in the way of Congress providing more funds for the conflict without insisting on a clear timetable for ending it — an end date that would not pass the Senate nor survive George W. Bush’s veto.
“My message to them was, I’ll compare my credentials on opposing this war to anybody here, but as long as the troops are at war, we must support them,” Pelosi recalled. “I basically said to them, we all support the troops. But we have to do it when it’s difficult as well as when it’s easy.”
In 1996, Gingrich brought legislation raising the minimum wage to the House floor — a popular measure conservatives were against and yet knew would pass with a combination of Democratic and more moderate GOP support.
In that year’s election, “we had 23 districts where members thought they would lose if they didn’t get a vote,” Gingrich told me. It was an especially bitter pill to swallow for Majority Leader Dick Armey (R-Tex.), who opposed the very existence of a minimum wage. And yet, Armey argued in a private meeting, the survival of their majority hinged on allowing the House to work its collective will.
When Boehner was speaker, one of his closest friends in the House would regularly come to his office and plead for a seat on the powerful Energy and Commerce Committee. Boehner would hear out the member, then tell him: “Not gonna happen.”
But now “the reality is we have a lot of members who have distorted views of what’s possible,” said Brendan Buck, a former aide to both Boehner and Ryan.
It might be that only one of the bomb-throwers themselves — say, Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) — would have the credibility it takes to say no to them, though there is little evidence he has that capacity for pragmatism and respect for the institution. Or maybe it has to be a graybeard such as Rep. Tom Cole (R-Okla.), who is respected across the various factions within a party that is squabbling with a pettiness that would put a small-town city council to shame.
But someone has to do it. At this moment of peril for the country, and the world, there is too much at stake for any new speaker to continue indulging the least responsible actors in Congress. Is there a grown-up in the House?

E.E. Ward Moving and Storage, recognized by the Department of Commerce as the oldest continuously operating Black-owned business in the US was founded in 1881 by William Ward and his father, John T. Ward. The company’s beginning included two helpers, a team of horses, and a wagon.
It was first called the Ward Transfer Line. It was called Ward Storage and Transfer Company. By 1899 it adopted its current name, E.E. Ward Transfer and Storage Company, after John T. Ward’s grandson Edgar Earl took over the business. The company continued its commitment to reflect the mission of its founders, to provide quality services at fair prices. Family members were both owners and employees of the company.
By 1910 the company no longer used horse-powered vehicles as it expanded its clientele from families moving their furniture and household items to serving the needs of Columbus-area businesses and factories. It continued its tradition of family ownership, however. Eldon Ward, William’s grandson and John’s great-grandson was the last direct descendant of the founders to own the company after he joined in 1945. By the early 21st century, Brian A. Brooks, the godson of Eldon Ward, and Otto Beatty III, the son of Congresswoman Joyce Beatty, were owners of the company.
They are now a nationally recognized leader in the transportation and relocation industry. The company specializes in commercial, employee, and household relocation, as well as warehousing and customized logistics. It has earned numerous honors for exceptional service and historical achievement, including the Super Service Award from Angie’s List; MBE Supplier of the Year Award; Ohio Minority Supplier Development Council); Torch Award for Ethics, from the Better Business Bureau of Central Ohio, North American Van Lines Driver of the Year; Corporate Caring Human Services Award from Columbus Business First); Outstanding Diverse Organization Award from Columbus Business First); Moving and Storage Agent of the Year Service Excellence Award from the American Moving and Storage Association); and the North American Van Lines Power of Blue Team of the Year. #africanhistory365 #africanexcellence

Rules for Ohio's pending adult-use cannabis program moving 'quickly'
Administrative rulemaking for the state’s pending recreational marijuana program is moving full steam ahead, one industry trade association says, with sales likely to start by the third quarter of the year.
Cannabis possession, use and home growth went legal for Ohioans who are 21 and older at the end of 2023 with voter approval of Issue 2. But sales to those adult-use, non-medical customers is…

Susan West: Planting Prosperity Seed By Seed
She remembers when things were shiny.
It was a time when pedestrians had to look both ways before crossing most roads in Bellaire because the traffic was dense with East Ohio residents joining West Virginians flowing in off the toll bridge to visit a vibrant downtown district complete with everything needed for everyday life.
Susan West recalls the bustle of Imperial Glass before it shutdown in 1984, and she remembers storefront after storefront along Guernsey and Belmont streets, Little Leaguers lined up at Dairy Queen, and watching Lance Mehl, Joey Galloway, Ben Taylor, and Jose Davis in the NFL after they starred in their Saturday home games at Nelson Field.
And West watched, too, as the All American Town shrunk from city to village at the turn of the century.
Why?
Well, along witht he loss of industrial employment along the banks of the Mighty Ohio, the Bellaire Toll Bridge was shuttered by the state of Ohio in 1991, and no one with the Ohio Department of Transportation would entertain talks to renovate and reopen. ODOT also constructed the Ohio Route 7 bypass that streaks right by Bellaire, carrying consumers passed a business community that once counted on those drive-by opportunities.
None of the negatives - not the population decline or the crime or the fact the village now has more rental units than single-family residences - deter West from her multi-faceted mission of attracting out-of-towners to the Ohio Valley Farmer's Market each Saturday morning from June until October in the large parking lot along 32nd Street.
West is a produce farmer who tills close to her hometown, and for each morning market she collects other ranchers and yeomans to mix with local chefs and live musicians to create a nurturing atmosphere in the name of a potential return to prominence.
West collects a number of farmers and staff members for the Farmer's Markets in Bellaire and in St. Clairsville each week.
Of all the fruits and vegetables that can be grown in this area, what are – in your opinion – the best?
Nothing beats a homegrown tomato ripened on the vine!
Close runners up are a fresh picked ear of corn and a newly dug potato. You don’t know what you’re missing if you’ve never eaten a potato just after it’s been dug!
You’ve watched Bellaire shrink in commerce and population, and yet you are one of the village’s biggest supporters. Why?
I thought about this question for quite a while. The one-word answer is “roots.”
My grandmother was born in Bellaire of Italian immigrants. Her husband immigrated to Bellaire, and they lived here until they passed away. My father and my six siblings and I all graduated from Bellaire as did my three children. My daughter and her family live on the farm, and my youngest son hopes to build here someday. Even though the farm is outside the Village limits, it’s still in the Bellaire School District so Bellaire is still my hometown.
I remember a vibrant bustling town growing up. Generations ago, Bellaire was the center of commerce in Belmont and its surrounding counties and offered dining and entertainment as well. Many things outside the town’s control contributed to its decline. Times have rapidly changed and not necessarily, in my opinion, for the better. I want to be a part of the reason it flourishes again!
West spends much of her free time promoting the Ohio Valley Farmer's Markets in Bellaire and St. Clairsville.
What sitcom is your all-time favorite, and why?
I don’t watch a lot of TV, but I enjoy reruns of “The Golden Girls.” Those ladies are a hoot! And I adore Betty White.
When I watch TV or a movie, I want to laugh a lot (or cry because I’ve been touched in a good way). “The Golden Girls” certainly makes me laugh!
To what do you owe the success of the Bellaire’s Farmer’s Market?
The Ohio Valley Farmers’ Market is a labor of love. Any success is a result of hard work, dedication, education, and support from those who believe in our mission. Those “changing times” I previously mentioned have made keeping the Market successful a challenge.
People are reluctant to get up early and head to the Market on a Saturday morning. Kids are involved in so many activities parents find themselves too busy. Online shopping and the availability of produce year-round at the grocery store have given people the convenience they desire and a skewed perception of what is local and in-season.
Growing up, corn on the cob was a summertime treat. Fresh berries were anticipated in June and July. I feel cooking with fresh, local ingredients has become a fad rather than a way of life. So, to make the Market successful, we pour a lot of time and resources into adding amenities to draw people in.
Our Tasting Tent, local musicians, the Kids’ Corner, free coffee and tea, and educational programs to teach people about the benefits to their health and the community by buying locally are some of the ways we try to make the Market a destination location and increase support.
And the social aspect of shopping within your community at the Market should never be undervalued. I have watched my customers become friends with each other, catching up on kids, grandkids, jobs, and more as they mingle each week, and that’s a wonderful thing.
It was Bill West who introduced Susan to the farming life just out of the Village of Bellaire.
How’d ya become a farmer?
Those Italian roots that were the foundation of my childhood and upbringing included backyard gardens. My father’s parents, his sister, and our family lived in a triangle in First Ward. They all had gardens. I never knew life without home-grown veggies.
When my husband and I started dating just after our senior year of high school, one of the first things he did was bring me to “the farm.” I think he was relieved when he realized I would love to build a life here. I worked at many jobs over the years, but they were never truly fulfilling, and the pull to get back to the soil was always strong.
One day, the urge was greater than my common sense (lol), and I quit my part-time job and decided to become a produce farmer. That was in 2002, I believe, and I haven’t looked back. I’m not sure how many more years I have left in me, but growing clean, wholesome food is a passion that won’t ever fade.

Ohio Legalizes Marijuana, But Where to Buy is Major Issue: Black Market Set to Flourish as State Works to Create Regulations and Licenses for Dispensaries
Ohio has become the latest state to legalize marijuana for adult use, but there is one major issue: there is nowhere to buy it. On July 30th, Governor Mike DeWine signed a bill into law that allows adults 21 and older to possess and grow marijuana, but there are no legal dispensaries in the state. This means that while it is now legal to possess and grow marijuana, it is still illegal to purchase it.
The new law does allow for the state to issue licenses for retailers and dispensaries, but it is unclear when this will happen. The Ohio Department of Commerce has until September 8th to develop rules and regulations for the program, and then it will be up to the state’s medical board to approve the licenses. This means that it could be months before any legal dispensaries are open in the state.
In the meantime, Ohioans will have to rely on the black market to purchase marijuana. This is concerning for many, as the black market is unregulated and could contain products that are unsafe or of poor quality. Additionally, purchasing marijuana on the black market is illegal, and could lead to criminal charges.
The new law does have some advantages, however. It allows for adults to possess and grow marijuana for personal use, and it also allows for the state to create a regulated market for marijuana. This could lead to increased tax revenue for the state, as well as increased safety for consumers.
In order for the state to ensure the safety of its citizens, it is important that it has a reliable and trusted testing and compliance partner. ACS Lab is an industry-trusted partner for hemp and cannabis testing and compliance. They provide comprehensive testing services to ensure that products are safe and compliant with state regulations. By hiring ACS Lab, the state of Ohio can ensure that its marijuana products are safe and of high quality.
In conclusion, Ohio has become the latest state to legalize marijuana for adult use. While it is now legal to possess and grow marijuana, it is still illegal to purchase it. The state is in the process of developing rules and regulations for the program, but it could be months before any legal dispensaries are open. In the meantime, Ohioans will have to rely on the black market to purchase marijuana, which is concerning due to the lack of regulation. To ensure the safety of its citizens, the state should hire ACS Lab, an industry-trusted testing and compliance partner for hemp and cannabis.
