In Indiana Governor’s Race, What Plans Do Candidates Have For Legalizing Marijuana?

Jennifer McCormick, the Democrat running for governor of Indiana, wants to put the Hoosier State on a path to legalizing marijuana if she’s elected in November.  

McCormick this week released a plan that would legalize medical marijuana and set up Indiana to eventually follow that with legalized recreational weed. The plan would also establish a commission to oversee the state’s future cannabis industry, which her campaign says could potentially provide an additional $172 million in annual tax revenues to Indiana.

But McCormick, if she is elected later this year, would still have to work with a current Republican supermajority in both chambers at the Statehouse to get policies passed.

The Democrat faces Republican U.S. Sen. Mike Braun and Libertarian Donald Rainwater in the election this November. Braun has previously stated interest in medical marijuana while Rainwater said he favors legalizing all forms of cannabis.
