Illinois' cannabis licensing lottery ‘complete failure’ says minority access committee co-chair
Some lawmakers in Illinois are being critical of the governor’s attempt to distribute cannabis dispensary licenses, calling it inequitable.
Gov. J.B. Pritzker’s license distribution plan involves a scoring system and lottery that some believe shuts out minorities.
State Rep. Sonya Harper, D-Chicago, calls out the system, saying it put minorities at a disadvantage and needs to be rethought, as reported by NPR.
