Curaleaf Presses NY Governor to Fix Out-of-State Cannabis Problem

“We applaud Curaleaf for using its voice”

The world’s largest cannabis company is calling on New York Gov. Kathy Hochul to hurry up and sign legislation that aims to prevent out-of-state products from slipping into the state’s regulated supply chain.

Curaleaf, which operates six dispensaries in the state, including three dual-use and three medical-only stores, took out a full-page ad in the New York Post on Sept. 23, urging the governor to sign the “Cannabis Supply Chain and Anti-Inversion Act,” which the state Legislature passed in June.

The paid ad showcases a large bag of cannabis flower with a label containing capitalized font that reads, “Unregulated, out-of-state cannabis is flooding New York,” adding a message below that tells Hochul, “We can’t afford to wait,” urging her to sign the legislation and “build the safe, responsible cannabis market New Yorkers deserve.”
