As readers of this column know, New York's nascent adult-use cannabis market has (so far) failed to live up to the potential that was trumpeted when the Marihuana Regulation and Taxation Act (MRTA) was signed into law in 2021. Everyone, from consumers and industry participants, up to Gov. Kathy Hochul, has expressed their frustration in the last twelve months with the state of the industry. The main target of the ire was the Office of Cannabis Management (OCM), the industry's primary regulator, which was roasted in a report, commissioned by the governor's office, from the New York State Office of General Services (OGS). The aftermath of the report has been a "cleaning of the house" of sorts, with several high-profile departures. However, as recent news reports indicate, the New York City Sherriff's Office (which was charged with shutting down illicit operators in New York City) is also part of the problem, and is now the target of a Department of Investigation probe into missing cash.
