"The illicit illegal market is continuing to grow and thrive, while our legal cannabis market is struggling," Haney said earlier this year during a debate over the bill.
Supporters of the California bill argue that it would help create a more comfortable recreational weed culture that would boost the bottom lines for California's highly taxed and regulated legal cannabis dispensaries.
The bill is sponsored by the California Nightlife Assn. and California NORML, a chapter of the national organization that lobbies for changes to cannabis laws.
Assemblymember Matt Haney (D-San Francisco), who wrote the bill, has said that another revenue stream would support legal businesses that 'just want to diversify their businesses and do the right thing.'
