Judge tentatively finds California cannabis tax revenue changes constitutional
A California Superior Court judge tentatively ruled that legislation reducing cannabis tax revenue for programs like childcare is constitutional, rejecting a petition claiming it violates Proposition 64. The judge argued the legislature's changes to Assembly Bill 564 and Senate Bill 141 do not overstep authority by eroding tier three funding for social and environmental programs.
