Florida residents won’t just be voting for president. They will also be deciding whether to legalize recreational marijuana–along with five other amendments. Here, we break down Amendment 3, its impacts and what Florida currently allows.

"We do not need to ruin lives & waste Taxpayer Dollars arresting adults with personal amounts of it on them, and no one should grieve a loved one because they died from fentanyl laced marijuana," he then claimed.

Trump, a Florida resident, said he’d be voting for the amendment that would legalize recreational pot in the state for adults, even as DeSantis campaigns against it.
