Why Can’t Florida Get Recreational Cannabis Approved Once and for All?

Floridians have worked so hard to approve a recreational bill in the state, all to no avail. Obstacles—big and small—have popped up at crucial times to put a stop to legalization processes. Many believe that the availability of medical cannabis in the state is enough reason to hope that recreational cannabis will one day be made available to cannabis lovers and advocates. The biggest obstacle to the legalization of recreational cannabis in the Sunshine State is none other than Governor Ron DeSantis. In previous years, voters have shown massive support for the medical cannabis bill in the state and have requested the approval of a recreational cannabis bill. Still, the governor has maintained chiefly an opposing stance to this development.
