"We’re excited by the recently revised legalization bill that was released yesterday. Although we believe some of the social equity licensing could be better tailored, this bill is a vast improvement over where we started in January and heads and tails better than the status quo. With the addition of home grow for adults by 2023, the dedication of 50 percent of the licenses, and upwards of 60 percent of the excise tax revenue being put towards equity efforts, the bill looks poised to gain passage in both chambers," said DeVaughn Ward, MPP's senior legislative counsel.
