LANSING, Mich. — Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel has some career advice for a member of the state Medical Marijuana Licensing Board, which is being phased out:
“Don Bailey is going to have to get a new job now. I know, like those animal control facilities, they always need people to euthanize puppies and stuff. There has got to be some work for him.”
Nessel spoke at a dinner at the Lansing Center last night thrown by the Michigan Cannabis Industry Association attended by over 400 marijuana industry insiders. They’ve been critical of Bailey, a former Michigan State Police officer, for his conservative stance on regulations.
Gov. Gretchen Whitmer abolished the board on March 1 with an executive order that instead created the Marijuana Regulatory Agency.
Bailey, labeled Nessel’s comments a “low blow” in an interview today but said he wasn’t offended.
