RWB Why are some Kentucky communities voting on medical marijuana?
SUMMARY: The new medical cannabis program permits local communities in Kentucky to opt out, creating a scenario where over 50 counties and cities will let voters decide on medical marijuana sales via ballot questions. While many jurisdictions initially opted in, local leaders have resolved to allow community votes considering their impact. Even in opted-out areas, patients can access cannabis statewide. Representative Bray, who initially opposed the bill for being overly broad, supports local decisions while acknowledging potential confusion among voters. Senator Thomas emphasizes local control and believes any confusion will stem from misinterpreting votes as a stance on cannabis legality rather than sales.
Some Kentucky voters will be deciding if their communities can have medical marijuana businesses operate locally, but it’s not on every ballot. Sen. Reggie Thomas and Rep. Josh Bray iron out the confusion on Red, White, and Bluegrass and discuss what they expect to see in their communities.
