Governor Hochul Announces Start of State Interagency Enforcement Actions Against Unlicensed Cannabis Businesses

Press Release

Date: June 8, 2023
Location: Albany, NY
Issues: Marijuana

"New York is proud to have undertaken the most equitable legal cannabis roll-out in the nation and the State will not stand idle as unlicensed operators break the law and sell untested products to underage New Yorkers. These enforcement actions are critical steps to protect and help those individuals who were promised a shot to start a legal business and be successful. Additionally, these unlicensed operators undermine the State's efforts to generate substantial funds for a social equity fund that will go into the communities that have been hardest hit by over-prosecution of the cannabis laws in the past."
