Attorney General Ashley Moody is challenging a proposed 2020 amendment that would legalize marijuana for adults over the age of 21.
The initiative by Sensible Florida would regulate marijuana in a similar way to alcohol. The ten-page long petition explains exactly how those regulations will be set up. But Attorney General Ashley Moody says, "there is no way 10 pages of the law can be summarized clearly in 75 words or less."
“Absolutely it does," says Michael Minardi the chairperson for the group. "The reason realistically for the length of it is because we do establish some regulations in it. And the ballot summary says we establish regulations for the licensing and sale of cannabis marijuana for adults 21 and plus.”
The petition also let’s adults grow up to six cannabis plants.
