Fifteen Oregon localities have voted to opt back in to allowing recreational marijuana, overturning bans on cannabis sales or MJ businesses, election results show.
According to the Oregonian, voters in 60 communities considered ballot initiatives that basically asked residents to determine whether recreational or medical cannabis should be permitted.
The Oregonian also reported that more than 100 communities were moving toward slapping additional local taxes on rec cannabis sales, including Portland.
Amid growing criticism, NCIA chief Aaron Smith admits missteps and hopes to move the trade group in a new direction.
