- In Florida, some Republican lawmakers are advocating for expanded access to both medical and recreational marijuana.
Following nearly 56% voter approval for recreational use in the last election, two new proposals aim to allow home cultivation for medical marijuana patients and fully legalize recreational use for adults 21 and older.
The proposed House bill would permit adults to purchase up to two ounces of flower and five grams of concentrate while also restructuring the medical marijuana industry to allow more competition. Although these measures are sponsored by GOP lawmakers, it's uncertain how much support they'll receive in the legislature.
Meanwhile, efforts are already underway to place recreational marijuana on the ballot for the 2026 election.
