OR MJ tax revenues
OR MJ tax revenuesOregon tax rev from MaryJane, climbing quickly and now at $50 million per quarter, are a strong argument for legalization. Benefits: compete direct with illegal black market dealing a blow to organized crime, lower costs of law enforcement and jail for MJ-related offenses, reverse the history of racial targetting in prosecution for MJ offenses, fund state and local government operations like cops or schools, regulated MJ quality and strength testing. If you're a governor of a state where recreational is still illegal, you've got an uphill argument battle. And if you're federal, Trump or Biden, legalization has to be financially appealing. All these factors provide a tailwind to GLH, and they are executing great. https://www.oregon.gov/dor/programs/gov-research/Documents/Financial-reporting-receipts-public.pdf
