LA Voters Decide on Cannabis Tax, Black Market
Description
Los Angeles voters face a crucial decision on June 2nd with Measure CB, aiming to tax illegal cannabis shops like legal ones. This could generate $30-35 million annually for city services. Supporters argue its a fair fix, while opponents fear it may inadvertently boost the black market. The council offers an amnesty deal for businesses paying up within three years. The ballot move aims to address budget holes and control the unregulated cannabis scene, but its success hinges on public trust in the revenue promise.
