Florida Chamber launches new anti-Amendment 3 website

The Florida Chamber of Commerce is launching a new anti-Amendment 3 website outlining the potential hazards of legalizing pot.

This site, www.FLBizAgainstA3.com, is part of the Chamber’s effort to educate residents and business leaders on the possible negative ripple effects of Amendment 3, including the severe consequences for local businesses, public safety, Florida’s brand and Florida’s quality of life.

The Florida Chamber has opposed placing recreational marijuana for in the Constitution for years, and the “No on 3” effort includes the leadership of Gov. Ron DeSantis, the Florida Sheriff’s Association, numerous members of the Local Chamber Federation, and other community and legislative leaders.

“Only three states have legalized recreational marijuana by 60%, and we’re fighting to make sure Florida doesn’t become the 4th,” said Florida Chamber President and CEO Mark Wilson. “The passage of Amendment 3 would jeopardize Florida’s family-friendly and business-friendly climate, while driving up costs for local businesses and families and degrading our quality of life.
