The Supreme Court ruled in favor of allowing voters to decide on legalizing recreational marijuana in Florida, dismissing weak arguments against the amendment. The majority opinion provided a scathing response to attempts to block the amendment, emphasizing that voters are capable of understanding the ballot question. The ruling highlights the current availability of recreational pot and the failure of state regulators to enforce the restrictions of the 2016 medical marijuana amendment. The court's decision paves the way for potential voter approval of the 2024 amendment and reinforces the right to expand protections for recreational pot usage.
