FSA President Sheriff Bill Prummell released the following statement regarding the failure of Amendment 3 (recreational use of marijuana).

“Following the strong leadership of Governor DeSantis and sheriffs across Florida, we’re pleased that citizens took the time to understand the dangers of Amendment 3 and chose to safeguard what makes Florida the best place to live, work, and play.  Sheriffs trusted the judgment of Floridians to reject this hazardous amendment to our Constitution. Today, we can feel assured that the safety of our communities and the future of our children are more secure, as the potential harms of recreational marijuana will not become part of our state constitution.”
