MedMen registered a political committee earlier in August. Nick Hansen, MedMen’s director of government affairs in the southeastern US, chaired the committee. The committee started a ballot initiative called “Make it Legal Florida.” The intention is to “legalize the safe, adult use of marijuana.” Hansen mentioned that Florida voters are eager to support the initiative.

The proposition also ensures that cannabis products are “clearly labeled and in childproof packaging.” Currently, the Florida Division of Elections is reviewing the petition. The “Make it Legal Florida” campaign will compete against a campaign started by Sensible Florida. Two weeks ago, Marijuana Moment reported that MedMen supports starting a ballot measure to legalize marijuana in Arizona in 2020.
