Earlier this year, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, the New York Democrat, introduced draft legislation that could legalize marijuana at the federal level. Although that might be a best-case scenario for the industry, any kind of reform could be welcome news for multi-state operators (MSOs).

These are two of the top MSOs in the country, and here’s why their shareholders could be big winners if the federal government eases the rules for the marijuana industry.
