Some lawmakers are already on board, though, and Sen. Michael Moore and Rep. Hannah Kane have already introduced a bill to create an anti-black-market task force. They are currently refining the language of the bill, but it\u2019s likely that the final version has a good chance of being passed into law.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne of the things that needs to change in the law is we need to give the Department of Revenue the ability to assess excise tax on the illegal, illicit market players the same way we do on the legal marketplace,\u201d said Rep. Kane <a href=\"https:\/\/www.masslive.com\/marijuana\/2020\/02\/should-illegal-marijuana-sellers-be-taxed-in-massachusetts-ccc-state-legislators-eyeing-a-task-force-that-would-look-toward-taxation-over-criminal-penalties.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><u>to <\/u><u><em>MassLive<\/em><\/u><\/a>. \u201cIn the instance of some of these large-scale recent takedowns of illegal players,&#8221; the Department of Revenue &#8220;would be able to assess the excise on top of the product amount that was caught as part of that bust.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The task force will focus its efforts on large-scale black market operations, rather than cracking down on home-growers that sell a little weed to their friends. As an example, a woman from Milton was recently arrested for running an illegal pot business that sold $14 million of weed over two years. If this new proposal were already law, this operation would be forced to pay nearly $3 million in taxes, based on the current state weed tax rate of <a href=\"https:\/\/merryjane.com\/news\/massachusetts-has-already-topped-dollar500-million-in-legal-cannabis-sales\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><u>17 to 20 percent<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMoving away from criminal penalties and really reserving criminal penalties for instances where there are intentional, knowing, harmful actions is a really key piece to understanding why it\u2019s important to have these groups around one table and then shifting to something that allows for administrative penalty,\u201d McBride <a href=\"https:\/\/www.masslive.com\/marijuana\/2020\/02\/should-illegal-marijuana-sellers-be-taxed-in-massachusetts-ccc-state-legislators-eyeing-a-task-force-that-would-look-toward-taxation-over-criminal-penalties.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><u>explained<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Take note California: A new state task force would impose state taxes on large black market weed dealers, with the eventual aim of encouraging them to transition to the legal market.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":50195,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3036],"tags":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.5 -
