The Coalition for Cannabis Policy, Education and Regulation (CPEAR) issued a new report on Wednesday with the title - Cannabis Legalization Is Not Associated with Increases in Youth Use, revealing that state-level marijuana legalization usually doesn’t cause an increase in youth consumption.
The members of this alcohol and tobacco industry-backed marijuana policy group include some large players across these industries such as Altria Group’s (NYSE:MO) Altria Client Services, Molson Coors Beverage Company (NYSE:TAP) and Constellation Brands (NYSE:STZ). The report was released before a scheduled panel event the group is hosting on Thursday with the main topic being youth prevention. The panel will also feature Senator John Hickenlooper (D-CO).
