Regarding the MRTA: “This legislation is the result of substantial conversations with concerned stakeholders from around the state,” said Harckham. “Because we took the time to gather necessary information and bring together everyone’s concerns, the result is a comprehensive agreement that stands as the most thoughtful bill of its kind in the nation. By regulating the sale of marijuana, we will be able to bring this economic activity out of the shadows for the good of all our residents.” 3/30/21
