I had already acquired a global entry card 3 years prior to my getting the marijuana card. Apparently CBP have the capability of receiving information on anyone that has a marijuana card, at least in Florida. Approximately 3 months after receiving my marijuana card I received a notice from CBP that my global entry was revoked. After making numerous attempts to acquire why I have still not received a direct answer. I do not meet any of the criteria for being denied that they list on their web page. So I figured that's got to be the only reason why I was denied. I sent emails and letters and to no avail I have still not received a direct answer other than we're sorry but you no longer meet the criteria. So it's either I live in pain to travel or I manage my pain and have to wait and long lines again to go through customs. I rather manage my pain thank you very much. Good luck to you all that have similar issues.
A long shot, but try contacting your local Representative.

(I say 'long shot' because it's probably a waste of time if your local congresscritter is vehemently anti-marijuana).
