Yesterday, New Hampshire Gubernatorial Candidate Dr. Tom Sherman traveled to a cannabis cultivation facility in Milford, Massachusetts yesterday to discuss how legalization of adult-use cannabis has impacted the state economically. New Hampshire is the only state in the region that has not legalized adult-use cannabis. 

Dr. Sherman was joined by Massachusetts State Representative Chynah Tyler to discuss how legislation she helped lead strengthened workforce, communities, and the economy. By taking lessons from states that have already legalized adult-use cannabis, New Hampshire can set up a safe and effective program.

“The vast majority of Granite Staters support legalizing adult-use cannabis,” said Dr. Tom Sherman. “I toured a cultivation facility to discuss how legalization could strengthen our workforce, our communities, and our economy. It’s time to stop outsourcing revenue to all of our surrounding states and finally legalize adult-use cannabis.”
