Michigan’s Cannabis Regulatory Agency has a new plan to crack down on illegal cannabis products that are somehow entering the legal program, and causing oversupply and price drop issues. The state’s top marijuana regulator, Brian Hanna, announced new initiatives to reporters in a media roundtable on Tuesday at the CRA’s Lansing headquarters, reported Crain’s Detroit Business.
Hanna, an ex-intelligence officer in the U.S. Army, was chosen by Governor Gretchen Whitmer to replace the agency’s founding director Andrew Brisbo in September. As weed prices in the state dropped, the pressure from legal operators started to build up, which resulted in Brisbo’s resignation, and support for Hanna, who is also a former Michigan State Police crime analyst, to take over the role grew.
