Good morning, Alpharetta.
The U.S. House is set to approve a continuing resolution to reopen the government that includes a provision setting a new federal 0.4% THC cap per hemp product — a measure that industry leader Joe Salome said could devastate Georgia's hemp market.
WalletHub released a report comparing major US cities on 18 key factors for Thanksgiving, and it rated San Antonio, Atlanta (a short drive for Alpharetta travelers) and Virginia Beach as top destinations.
