In the South, we do things differently. We take our time with everything from lunch to lawmaking, we love our land whether it’s a farm or a city block, and we look after our own.

And that’s especially true when it comes to the cannabis legalization movement.
Legalizing cannabis can unlock massive economic, social, and political benefits unique to the South, but only if lawmakers get it right.
