Tyson Takes a Punch for Pot: Former Champ Advocates for Marijuana Legalization in Pennsylvania

Former Boxing Champion Mike Tyson Advocates for Marijuana Legalization in Pennsylvania

Mike Tyson, the legendary heavyweight boxing champion, has lent his support to the ongoing efforts to legalize marijuana in Pennsylvania. As the owner of a successful cannabis company, Tyson believes that the state is missing out on significant tax revenue and job opportunities by not legalizing the drug.

Tyson, who has built a successful business in the cannabis industry, emphasized the potential benefits of legalization. He noted that neighboring states have already taken the step to legalize marijuana, and Pennsylvania’s failure to do so is a reflection of its lack of understanding of the community’s needs.

According to Tyson, legalizing marijuana would create over 500,000 new jobs in the state, which would be a significant boost to the economy. He believes that Pennsylvania is missing out on a valuable opportunity to generate revenue and create employment opportunities for its citizens.

Tyson’s advocacy for marijuana legalization is part of a growing movement in the state, as lawmakers and advocates continue to push for reform. With Tyson’s high-profile endorsement, the movement may gain even more momentum, potentially paving the way for Pennsylvania to join the growing list of states that have legalized marijuana.
