Jeff Irwin, who warn it could collapse the legal market, drive sales underground, and reduce overall tax revenue—similar to California’s experience. flag The tax, which would make Michigan’s cannabis taxes among the highest in the nation, is seen as a violation of the 2018 voter-approved law by some, prompting threats of legal action. flag The bill now heads to the Senate for debate.
