It’s fun to get to report good news every once i It’s fun to get to report good news every once in a while!!! Governor Dan McKee today signed into law the Rhode Island Cannabis Act, legalizing and safely regulating recreational adult-use cannabis in the state. The Act includes automatic expungement of prior civil or criminal marijuana possession charges, a key provision in the Governor’s original cannabis proposal to the General Assembly. Under the new law, possession and home-growing of cannabis is now legal for adults age 21 and older, and in-store sales may begin as soon as December 1. The law also establishes a framework for common-sense adult use cannabis regulation with a strong emphasis on public health and public safety. “This bill successfully incorporates our priorities of making sure cannabis legalization is equitable, controlled, and safe,” said Governor McKee. “In addition, it creates a process for the automatic expungement of past cannabis convictions. My Administration’s original legalization plan also included such a provision and I am thrilled that the Assembly recognized the importance of this particular issue. The end result is a win for our state both socially and economically.” The legislation calls for a 20 percent tax rate, split up into the 7 percent sales tax, a new 10 percent cannabis tax, and a 3 percent tax by the municipality where the marijuana is sold. In addition, the legislation makes numerous investments in the creation of an equitable, accessible cannabis retail market through the set-aside of certain application fee revenues and the reservation of a portion of new licenses for social equity applicants and worker-owned cooperatives. #legalizeit #marijuana #instagood #instalike #instalove #love #instadaily #instanews #cannabis #newportbuzz #danmckee #itsabouttime #progress
Eleven years ago today, May 25, 2011, Newport Buzz Eleven years ago today, May 25, 2011, Newport Buzz was born! Does creating this site way back when make me the smartest guy in the room or the dumbest dude you’ve ever met? I don’t know, but here’s the story of the birth of Newport Buzz. In January of 2011, I was living in New York City and working as a producer. I had recently been laid off from an online media division of Hearst Corporation, where I primarily worked as an entertainment producer in New York, Los Angeles, Vancouver, and San Francisco. Life was good, but that job went away.  So a good friend of mine decided that my new calling was to work as a producer on television commercials primarily for the banks and pharmaceutical companies, I did have some cool clients as well. I also was a producer on an award winning documentary about the impact of NYC subway suicides on the motormen. Anyway, I digress. In late January 2011, I came home to Newport for a weekend…(link in bio) #newportbuzz #newportri #instagood #takechances #rhodeisland #media #newmedia #blog #blogger #scenesofnewengland #nyc #boston #facebook #instagram #anniversary #birthday
