GOP And Democratic State Senators Back Florida’s Cannabis Legalization Initiative In New Ad As Ballot Vote Looms
In a bipartisan effort, two Florida state senators have come together to promote the Florida cannabis legalization initiative, known as Amendment 3 that will appear on the ballot in the November 2024 election. Republican Sen. Joe Gruters and Democratic Sen. Shevrin Jones are featured in a new ad sponsored by the Smart & Safe Florida campaign.
Gruters, a former chair of the Florida Republican Party, and Jones, a prominent Democratic senator, acknowledge that they “don’t agree on much—hardly anything” and would each be voting for their respective party’s presidential nominee, but legalizing marijuana is an issue they can both get behind.
