Pennsylvania Cannabis Coalition Applauds Attorney General Shapiro’s Support of Adult-Use Cannabis in State Budget Proposal

Date:

The Pennsylvania Cannabis Coalition (PCC) recently expressed their appreciation for Attorney General Josh Shapiro’s support of adult-use cannabis in the state budget proposal. This is a major step forward for the state, as it could potentially lead to the legalization of recreational marijuana in Pennsylvania.

The PCC is a non-profit organization dedicated to advancing the cause of cannabis reform in Pennsylvania. They have been advocating for the legalization of recreational marijuana since 2017, and their efforts have been gaining traction in recent years. In 2019, Governor Tom Wolf endorsed the legalization of recreational marijuana, and the state legislature has been considering various bills on the issue.

Attorney General Shapiro’s support of adult-use cannabis in the state budget proposal is a significant development for the PCC and their efforts to legalize recreational marijuana in Pennsylvania. The proposal includes a $200 million investment in the cannabis industry, which would create jobs and generate tax revenue for the state. It also includes provisions for expungement of prior cannabis convictions and reinvestment of tax revenue into communities disproportionately impacted by the war on drugs.

The PCC is thrilled with Attorney General Shapiro’s support of adult-use cannabis in the state budget proposal, and they are hopeful that this will be a major step towards the legalization of recreational marijuana in Pennsylvania. They believe that this move will help create jobs, generate tax revenue, and provide relief to those who have been disproportionately affected by the war on drugs.

The PCC is committed to continuing their efforts to legalize recreational marijuana in Pennsylvania, and they are optimistic that Attorney General Shapiro’s support of adult-use cannabis in the state budget proposal will help them achieve their goal. With this major step forward, it looks like Pennsylvania may soon become the latest state to legalize recreational marijuana.
