Senator James Sanders Jr. will host part 2 of his series on the effects of the possible legalization of recreational marijuana in New York State.
This will be an enlightening conversation focusing on how New York State tax revenues from the legalization of recreational marijuana may be reinvested into communities impacted by the war on drugs. The discussion will also address community concerns with the proposed legislation and examine how similar laws have impacted other states. We will explore how New York State can develop preventative measures to combat obstacles, create an equity program for medical marijuana and last, but not least, delve into potential business opportunities.

New York State Senator Liz Krueger
