More Access to Medical Marijuana in Florida?

With Gov.-elect Ron DeSantis taking office, there may be more light at the end of the tunnel. DeSantis has stated that he doesn’t support friction that Florida has seen in expanding the medical marijuana program.  That could mean less restrictions on dispensaries entering the state and allowing for more options for Florida medical marijuana patients that are seeking relief.  Currently the state is fighting multiple lawsuits regarding medical marijuana access and DeSantis has said that he’s not interested in continuing the fight.

“The governor-elect is considering a variety of options on this matter, along with a number of other important issues, and will be discussing these further as we move forward with our transition and administration,” DeSantis transition spokesman Dave Vasquez said in an email when asked to clarify which litigation Nuñez was referring to.

DeSantis will “faithfully execute the will of the people on medical marijuana,” Gaetz said in a text Friday morning.

“As the author of Florida’s first medical marijuana laws, I’m comforted to know conditions will improve for patients under a governor fully committed to this objective. The governor-elect and I have discussed a variety of strategies. I suspect specifics will be refined in consultation with the health care advisory committee to the transition and Gov.-elect Desantis’s selections for surgeon general and general counsel,” Gaetz said.

The new administration —- which, under the amendment, is responsible for implementation of the amendment and oversight of the marijuana industry —- will play a major role, Nuñez indicated.
