Tribal cannabis update from New York to Washington State
The Shinnecock Nation is seeing their first cannabis dispensaries opening. They are among a rush of weed businesses among New York tribes as the state starts welcoming recreational use sales.
The same is happening all across the country—in Minnesota, New Mexico, California, and Nevada — as tribes see new economic development opportunities in places where cannabis is no longer prohibited by state law.
