What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

While recreational marijuana remains illegal in Wisconsin, neighboring states like Michigan and Illinois have legalized it. Governor-elect David Crowley stated that Wisconsin should legalize marijuana because people are leaving the state to purchase the product. Nilsson Davis, owner of Elevated Exotics in Michigan, reported that Wisconsin customers account for about half of his business, generating over $30 million in sales to Wisconsin residents.
