Is there any news about countries or American states taking steps to legalize cannabis freedom ?

=== Assistant: Short answer: Yes — there’s still active movement around the world and in U.S. ===
Short answer: Yes — there’s still active movement around the world and in U.S. states, but it’s mixed (some countries/states are advancing legalization or regulated pilot programs while others are tightening rules). Below is a quick, sourced snapshot of the most important developments right now and where to watch next.

=== Quick highlights (with sources) ===
* Germany — after legalizing adult use in 2024, Germany is continuing to implement a regulated market and its law is driving regulatory discussion in Europe. Mexico Business News<ref>{{cite web|title=Mexico Business News|url=https://mexicobusiness.news/health/news/2025-year-set-record-straight-cannabis-industry|publisher=Mexico Business News|access-date=2025-11-28}}</ref>
* Brazil — Brazil’s national health agency (Anvisa) recently cleared the country’s agricultural research agency (Embrapa) to begin official cannabis research and build a seed bank — a major step toward enabling domestic medical/industrial cultivation. Reuters<ref>{{cite web|title=Reuters|url=https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/brazils-agricultural-research-agency-gets-cannabis-research-greenlight-2025-11-21/|publisher=reuters.com|access-date=2025-11-28}}</ref>
* Europe (pilot programs / planned reforms) — several European countries are running or planning controlled pilot programs (Switzerland, the Netherlands) or moving toward legalization (Czech Republic has planned reforms). Contentful<ref>{{cite web|title=Contentful|url=https://assets.ctfassets.net/pn8wbiqtnzw9/MuBhbwrCy8zqJXADZfuhN/ec6e131178e89ef6a21248828090602c/Cannabis_in_Europe_Update_2__Feb_2025_.pdf|publisher=assets.ctfassets.net|access-date=2025-11-28}}</ref>
* Thailand — not every trend is liberalizing: Thailand moved in mid-2025 to tighten/recriminalize aspects of its earlier liberalization, showing back-and-forth policy risk. Reuters<ref>{{cite web|title=Reuters|url=https://www.reuters.com/markets/commodities/thailand-moves-recriminalise-cannabis-shaking-1-bln-industry-2025-06-25/|publisher=reuters.com|access-date=2025-11-28}}</ref>
* United States — state-level activity — as of 2025, medical cannabis exists in ~40 states and adult-use in 24 states; multiple states had active bills, signature campaigns, or shifting policy debates in 2025 (analysts flagged PA, NH, HI, VA among those to watch; news outlets report continuing state-level legislative activity and ballot/legal fights). NCSL<ref>{{cite web|title=NCSL|url=https://www.ncsl.org/health/state-medical-cannabis-laws|publisher=ncsl.org|access-date=2025-11-28}}</ref>

=== Recent U.S. on-the-ground signals ===
* Advocacy/tracking groups list dozens of bills and signature efforts in 2025; some states that looked likely earlier in the year saw mixed results (signature drives tossed, restrictive bills passed in some legislatures). If you follow one outlet, Marijuana Moment is a fast daily tracker of state and federal actions. Marijuana Moment<ref>{{cite web|title=Marijuana Moment|url=https://www.marijuanamoment.net/|publisher=Marijuana Moment|access-date=2025-11-28}}</ref>

=== Want a deeper dive? ===

I can do one of the following right now (pick one):
* Pull live bill status and recent news for a specific U.S. state (e.g., Pennsylvania, Florida, Ohio, Texas).
* Build a short list of countries with active legalization or pilot programs and give details on timelines and what “legalization” actually allows in each place.
* Set up a concise watch-list of 5–10 sources you can follow for daily/weekly updates (newsletters, NCSL, MPP, Marijuana Moment, Reuters, etc.). NCSL<ref>{{cite web|title=NCSL|url=https://www.ncsl.org/health/state-cannabis-legislation-database|publisher=ncsl.org|access-date=2025-11-28}}</ref>

Which of those should I fetch now? (or tell me a specific country/state and I’ll pull the latest bill/status and headlines immediately.)

Momentum for cannabis freedom continues: Germany is implementing a regulated market, Brazil greenlights research, Europe runs pilot programs while Thailand tightens rules. In the U.S. it’s still a state-by-state battle — wins and setbacks. #CannabisFreedom
