Lets expand on the "More" part. It helps big business lock in a monopoly on the market. It creates new felonies for possession, and puts further limits on home growing to push people to the despos go gain more revenue. I like some thigs about it, but I'll be voting no.

Current felony cannabis limits in Missouri have anything over 35g (barely over an ounce) of up to 7 years in prison and up to a $10,000 fine. What we'll be voting on allows 21+ to possess up to 3 ounces with no penalties. SO now, it doesn't create a new felony. It lowers the penalties.

The amendment allows a minimum of 144 new business licenses (no maximum). There are already over 100 different cannabis entities in the state. So the idea that this will create a monopoly is silly.

By the way, the folks that are running this campaign are the same folks that passed the medical cannabis law in 2016.

You are completely uninformed, but not surprised. There's always tons of misinformation from both sides anytime there's a ballot initiative.
