Governor Holcomb has historically voiced opposition toward reforming marijuana laws, including opposing efforts to provide medical cannabis access. He continued to affirm this viewpoint in 2019, stating that he will continue to oppose both medical and adult-use legalization efforts in Indiana as long as cannabis remains illegal under federal law. "If the [federal marijuana] law changed, we would look at all the positive or adverse impacts it would have. I’m not convinced other states have made a wise decision." (Link)
"Right now, it’s a crime. I’m just simply not willing to look the other way." (Link)
