A lawsuit seeking to overturn an initiative to legalize recreational cannabis that would allow sales of marijuana to adults 21 and older was filed Friday in Cole County Circuit Court, reported Missouri Independent.
The latest push from prohibitionists to remove the legalization question from the ballot is supported by the Colorado-based Protect Our Kids PAC. Luke Niforatos, the group’s CEO, said that the initiative petition is “a scam,” adding he hopes that “courts will rule on this issue expeditiously and spare Missouri’s children from targeting by Big Marijuana.”
