The last adult-use cannabis legalization measure on the ballot in Arizona, Proposition 205, failed to pass by a slim margin of about 3 percent back in 2016.
The Arizona Dispensaries Association, which is backing legalization in the upcoming 2020 election, released the details of a new ballot measure on Friday, hoping the grass will be greener the second time around.
"This bill represents the right balance for Arizona right now," said Tim Sultan, executive director of the ADA. "It gives back to the state and the people of Arizona in the form of tax revenue, education, and public safety."
