National Assoc of Cannabis Businesses Sends Open Letters To NE Governors Requesting “Regionally Coordinated Legalizatin Strategy”

Marijuana Moment reports……….The National Association of Cannabis Businesses (NACB) said a regionally coordinated legalization strategy would help generate much-needed tax revenue from legal marijuana sales.

“Governors in the northeastern U.S. have been working tirelessly and effectively to contain the coronavirus crisis, and the NACB has great respect for their efforts,” Mark Gorman, NACB executive vice president, said in a press release. “We are also enthusiastic for their leadership of efforts to coordinate the resources and strategies needed to emerge from the lockdown.”

“Legalizing cannabis sales and encouraging retailers to be proactive with strategies like home delivery and curbside pickup is not only a safe way to serve consumers, it will also generate millions of dollars in desperately needed tax revenues for their states,” he said.

The letters were sent to the governors of New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Delaware, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Massachusetts.

NACB said in the letters that they feel “strongly that pushing legislation over the finish line to fully legalize cannabis for adult recreational use is an idea whose time has arrived.”
