Cannabis Companies Pony Up $15M To Support Florida Legalization Amendment, Adding To Trulieve's $40M
Portfolio Pulse from Maureen Meehan
Following the Florida Supreme Court's decision to allow a constitutional amendment for legalizing recreational marijuana on the November 2024 ballot, cannabis companies, including Trulieve, have collectively contributed over $15 million in support. Trulieve had previously donated $40 million. The amendment, known as Amendment 3, aims to legalize non-medical personal use of marijuana for adults 21 or older and requires a 60% voter approval. Companies like Verano Holdings, Curaleaf Holdings, AYR Wellness, Cresco Labs, Green Thumb Industries, and INSA, Inc. are among the new donors. The funding announcement coincides with the upcoming Benzinga Cannabis Capital Conference in Florida.
