Special Guest: Bernie Moreno, US Senate Candidate
Issue 2 - “Commercialize, Regulate, Legalize, and Tax the Adult Use of Cannabis”
Actual text of the resolution is 51 pages long!!!
And very, very difficult to find online
While much is said about “cannabis” the bulk of the language deals with “Social Equity and Jobs Program” - a new effort under the Ohio Department of Development
The actual text contains the word “equity” over twice as many times as the word “license”.
Section 2: “provide funding and social equity opportunities in the state”
Section 3: “Prescribing standards and procedures in coordination with the department of development to administer and enforce the cannabis social equity and jobs program”
The Department of Development - “Creating a better life for all Ohioans”
Already sounds like an “equity” focused organization
New “Social Equity and Jobs Program”
Funded by legalizing and licensing cannabis
Easily expanded to every area of commerce, business and government activity
Also includes language that forces cannabis into poor and impoverished neighborhoods
Anyone previously convicted of selling weed, can get Ohio funding to get back into the business!
Aside from the obvious issues with widespread use of marijuana, the focus on creating a whole new “equity” program has nothing to do with the legalization effort.
