Mid-2024 State Catalyst Review With Hirsh Jain

Higher Exchanges

Hirsh Jane, Founder of Ananda Strategy, joins the show to discuss the series of state-level catalysts ahead in 2024 and 2025. Ohio is in the process of approving stores and Hirsh updates us on when we might see doors open in the Buckeye State and his expectation for how sales will evolve.
Florida is the biggest potential adult-use flip in 2024, and the guys agres the state is polling well, and Amendment 3 is likely to pass this fall. Pennsylvania is the next biggest opportunity, and Hirsh shares why progress has been held up and explains why he thinks this state will likely open to adult use sometime in mid-to-late 2025.
Jesse's home state of Minnesota is one state we can count on starting sales next year, and the group talks about implications for GTI and Goodness Growth and what we can learn from the thriving hemp-derived THC market in the Land of 10,000 Lakes.
Finally, Hirsh explains the "Red Wave" thesis and how more adult-use Republican states may influence federal reform.
