DeSantis says recreational marijuana ballot initiative is ‘corporate greed’ | Florida
SUMMARY: Governor Ron DeSantis urged Florida voters to reject Amendment 3, which seeks to legalize recreational marijuana. At a news conference in Fort Myers, he criticized the amendment as a corporate power grab, funded largely by Trulieve Cannabis Corp., which could distort Florida’s constitution. He argued that the amendment’s language is misleading and that it would disadvantage citizens by limiting personal cultivation of marijuana. DeSantis emphasized that such issues should be legislated rather than added to the constitution, warning that passing it might change Florida’s culture and lead to increased youth marijuana use and related traffic fatalities.
