“Looks like patients are being held hostage by profits again,” reads a comment on r/ILtrees, echoing the frustration across Illinois’ medical cannabis community. House Bill 2911 aimed to allow medical patients to access all dispensaries at the lower medical tax rate. Unfortunately, Green Thumb Industries (GTI)’ alleged lobbying efforts led to its last-minute removal, leaving patients with limited options yet again. It’s not just a policy problem—it’s a serious barrier for those needing consistent access to medicine.
With the veto session starting November 12, advocates are hopeful that patient access provisions will get back on track. Meanwhile, Reddit, Inc. users are calling for boycotts and raising awareness about the barriers medical patients face. It’s clear that people are fed up, and the conversation isn’t just about one company—it’s about holding corporate cannabis accountable for supporting communities, not just profits.
This upcoming week on the F'nAround Podcast, we dive into how corporate cannabis policies impact real people and talk with community leaders about what needs to change. Get caught up before at fnaround.com.
Craft cares, corporate doesn’t.
Speak your truth.
