Comments
State Sen. Sharif Street of the 3rd Senatorial District said the legalization of cannabis would have far-reaching benefits, from boosting revenue to social justice. "Statewide, it should generate hundreds of millions of dollars of state revenue [that] could help address everything from funding education to funding antiviolence programs," he said. "Philadelphia talks about things in terms of a 5-year plan ... 5 years, that would be $3 billion in tax revenue." (October 2022)
