Tenax Strategies Leads Longest Push for Favorable Cannabis Legislation in Massachusetts
We’ve been at the forefront of advocating for favorable cannabis policy changes and legislation longer than anyone else. If you’re ready to start or expand a cannabis venture in the Bay State, our cannabis business experts know precisely what you need to build a fully-compliant, profitable cannabis business.
Our Early Wins in Massachusetts are the Fuel That Will Propel Your Cannabis Business Forward
In Massachusetts, medical marijuana was approved in 2012. It took four more years, but recreational marijuana was legalized for everyone 21 and over in 2016.
Tenax Strategies was the leader behind this push for medical marijuana and recreational cannabis legislation in the Bay State. We built and organized the Coalition for Responsible Patient Care in 2012, which put Massachusetts on the path forward to full legalization and adult-use retail.
But our advocacy didn’t end there in 2012. We began working as medical marijuana consultants. Our experts advocated for our clients’ interests at the local level with municipal officials, who were suddenly faced with regulating and permitting facilities in an unfamiliar industry.
In 2014, another milestone in the legalization of marijuana was achieved with the decriminalization of licensed independent testing labs, for which Tenax Strategies played an instrumental role. It was in 2016, with our representation of the Yes on 4 Campaign, that voters fully legalized cannabis and created the lucrative adult-use industry that you see today.
Tenax Strategies built the Massachusetts cannabis industry.
