Florida Nears Recreational Marijuana Legalization Vote.
Florida's attorney general has filed papers with the state Supreme Court opposing the legalization of marijuana for recreational use, which could be decided by voters as soon as next year. Florida is one of 15 states that allow medical marijuana but not recreational marijuana. The state's largest medical marijuana company, Trulieve, is bankrolling the effort by Smart & Safe Florida, which has nearly 800,000 of the nearly 892,000 valid signatures to have the recreational marijuana measure placed on the ballot. Many predict it will pass just as medical marijuana passed in 2016.
