Reply to comment by Tullyswimmer in Bipartisan coalition advancing legislation to legalize recreational cannabis in NH - hopes of ending the Granite State’s status as an island of recreational cannabis prohibition by AMC4x4

This gets repeated every time the topic comes up. Has anyone from the legislature or governor's office actually said this? I can't find anything on it. One if the most recent bills would have given full control to the liquor board and it was rejected without debate.

EDIT: have they said that they do or don't want state control, I mean. Seems like we're mostly speculating on why it keeps getting rejected.

So, in the text of almost every recreational legalization bill before, it gives control over the sale and distribution to the state in some form (including the one you mention).

This is the first bill where sale and distribution is explicitly privatized and the state is left out entirely.
