Position on Marijuana Legalization

INDY Week Candidate Questionnaire

11. Do you support reforming North Carolina’s marijuana laws? Do you support full legalization? Please explain your position. 

Yes, I support a path to legalization of recreational and medical marijuana. We should legalize, regulate, grow, tax, and reinvest. I support Senator Graig Meyers policy approach outlined in S. 346, the Marijuana Justice and Reinvestment Act. This “North Carolina way” of legalization, includes distribution similar to the state’s ABC liquor system, robust public health efforts, ensuring local growers, and use of tax revenue as reinvestment. Taking a legalized approach to marijuana, like several other states have successfully implemented, will also create the opportunity to regulate cannabis-related products like Delta-9, TCHA and others that are widely available at gas stations and convenience stores.
