E17 - New Jersey regs, California’s DCC, Nevada consumption lounges, and the state of Florida vs Leafly

In this week’s High-Rise, Cy Scott and Emily Paxhia have a continued discussion around the state of New Jersey as new regulations begin to develop and certain municipalities choose to opt-out. Then the conversation shifts over to California where they delve into the newly formed and consolidated state agency known as the Department of Cannabis Control (DCC) and why this signals as a good sign for cannabis businesses across the state. We also talk about Nevada’s efforts to bring in public consumption lounges that are slated to open up some time in 2022. We end the discussion with recent news of Leafly challenging the state of Florida and it’s potential ban on third-party online marijuana services.
