Haha Dewine! Changes to Issue 2 Ohio #marijuana law stall in House

Ohio House Speaker Jason Stephens, R-Kitts Hill, told reporters Tuesday that the House won’t vote on any marijuana legislation this week before lawmakers take a monthlong holiday break.

DeWine teamed up with the GOP Senate to make the voter ballot initiative law impotent. #ohio #issue2

Recreational marijuana use, cultivation & possession became legal in Ohio on December 7th, including home grow.

4/ on the eve of legal #marijuana, Gov DeWine urges #Ohio House and Senate to vote tonight & pass the compromise bill

Home grow is to remain, only 6 plants per household instead of 12, THC levels to remain the same, as well as volume of weed.

The surprise is, instead of several months down the road, medical marijuana dispensaries can start selling recreational on December 7th #issue2

2/ The senate rushed through their #marijuana bill, including banning home grow & severe limits to where dispensaries can be, by tacking it on to H.B. 86, that revised the limit on the gallons of spirituous liquor that a micro-distillery may manufacture each year, and added their marijuana proposal onto that bill today, bypassing the normal process of creating a separate bill.

WCPO 9 Cincinnati · Ohio Senate wants to stop you from growing weed; House fights backWhile Ohio Senate Republicans move to dramatically change recreational marijuana policy, the House is fighting back in a bipartisan fashion — saying the will of the voters must be followed.

...and so it begins

Fairfield, #Ohio City Council bans recreational marijuana dispensaries from opening

In a 6-1 vote, the council chose to prohibit any cultivation, processing or dispensing of adult-use #cannabis

Nearly 58% of voters in Fairfield voted to pass recreational #marijuana use back in November. 34 out of its 38 precincts voted to pass it. #Issue2 passed in Ohio with 57% of the vote

Clueless vice mayor says new ban is the voters will. 🤔

Republicans don't care what voters want. Voter specially passed Issue 2 permitting limited home #marijuana cultivation for personal use. The Ohio #GOP are protecting their donors, corporate #Pot growers and sellers.

They also want to increase the tax rate.

They want to fast track pass it & get DeWine to sign it before Dec 7th legalization.

#SoundOff Ohio!

PBS NewsHour · Ohio Senate Republicans propose banning home grown marijuana and other changes to legal marijuanaOhio state Senate Republicans are proposing vast changes to a recreational marijuana measure approved by voters last month.

Ohio House Republicans introduce two bills to tweak Issue 2, marijuana law.

DeWine and others want something passed hurriedly by next week, Dec 7th when use and home cultivating becomes legal.

Some, including Gov #DeWine, want to make #issue2 impotent, without being accused of repealing. Things like letting local communities not only ban the commercial sale of #marijuana but to ban use of it in private homes. #ohio

DeWin lying again

Ohio Gov. DeWine calls for regulations on recreational marijuana after passage of Issue 2

He says, ""We've already seen an uptick in the number of children going to our emergency rooms because they ingested, they ate what looked to them to be a brownie, what looked to them to be a cookie."

You lying bastard. Issue 2 doesn't go in effect for 30 days and then there is the formation of the commission, rules, etc. #issue2 #marijuana #Ohio #ohioissue2

#Issue2 passed. What do you think Republicans going to do now?

The new law taxes #Cannabis at 10%, est $300mil yearly in taxes. 36% of that is targeted to go to social equity and jobs programs to those who have experienced past disproportionate enforcement of marijuana-related laws. Guess what #race that is?

Days before Election Day Republican Senate President Matt Huffman said he would seek to make changes targeting that provision if it passes.
