Cannabis

Through the first quarter of 2024, states have reported a combined total of more than $20 billion in tax revenue from legal, adult-use cannabis sales, according to a new report from Marijuana Policy Project.

Arizona saw $67,164,023 in cannabis sales tax revenue from January through March 2024. The state’s total tax revenue from cannabis sales in 2023 came to $635,617,878.

Twenty-four states have legalized cannabis possession for adults 21 and older. All but one of them — Virginia — have also legalized, regulated, and taxed cannabis sales. In two legalization states — Delaware and Ohio — sales have not begun yet.

In 2023, legalization states generated more than $4 billion in cannabis tax revenue from adult-use sales, which is the most revenue generated by cannabis sales in a single year.
