Governors meet to coordinate cannabis reform in the Northeast

Governors in the Northeast appear to be ramping up their support for cannabis reform.

Governor Wolf recently changed his position, announcing he now supports legalization.

“We need regulation, we need to make sure we’re protecting public health, public safety. But that’s regulation, not prohibition,” Governor Wolf said. “It’s also really important that we work together as a region to make sure that we’re on the same page.”

“Cooperating as a coalition of states on these issues is the best path forward—as we not only share borders, but we share economic interests, public health priorities, and a joint understanding that the more states that work together on these kinds of issues, the better the policy results will be for our residents,” Governor Lamont said.
