Thank you, sir.
I was part of the Colorado government. In fact, I was the governor's point person during the rollout from 2014 to 2017 of both medical and adult use cannabis. We taxed medical cannabis at a rate of 2.9% sales tax. Adult use had both a 10% excise tax and an additional 10% sales tax, along with the regular 2.9% retail tax. All those taxes on the adult use side have gone up. The medical tax has remained at 2.9%.
