SEP 10, 2019 Massachusetts cannabis corruption, Baker & DeLeo deserve blame
Massachusetts cannabis corruption, Baker & DeLeo deserve blame
Responding to media coverage of the federal indictment of the Mayor of Fall River over cannabis licensing bribery. The community predicted it after Charlie Baker & Bob DeLeo drastically rewrote the voter passed legalization initiative. If Baker & DeLeo truly want to reduce cannabis corruption change the law back to what we voted in. Force cities and towns with cannabis bans to put it to voters! Allowing many towns and city to ban cannabis shops without a vote has increased corruption creating an all out big stakes game with very limited real estate options. Baker & DeLeo created the mess and the globe, herald, Boston media won’t report that.
