FLORIDA NEWS
Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody is asking the Florida Supreme Court to dismiss a recreational marijuana amendment. Moody cited a law requiring constitutional amendments to touch on just a single subject, and whether it complies with all technical requirements of state law, which she claims the amendment does not follow. It would clear all licensed Medical Marijuana Treatment Centers in the state to start making and selling recreational cannabis products.
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signed a bill banning a central bank digital currency. The Biden administration began studying the concept last year, but it would be banned in Florida before any federal measure was implemented. “Maybe you bought a firearm last week and they don’t want you to buy another one this week,” DeSantis said. “Anyone with their eyes open can see the dangers of what this type of arrangement would mean.”
