Ron DeSantis Predicts Favorable Outcome For Marijuana Legalization Ballot In Florida
Portfolio Pulse from Maureen Meehan
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis predicts that the state Supreme Court will approve a recreational cannabis initiative for the 2024 ballot. Despite his opposition to marijuana reform, DeSantis believes Florida voters should have their say. The initiative, backed by public support and funded by Trulieve Cannabis Corp, would allow medical cannabis companies to sell to adults but not permit home cultivation. Attorney General Ashley Moody is attempting to block the initiative, which has nearly one million signatures.
