批评者说,缅因州不公平地以严厉惩罚的合法大麻种植者为目标,敦促制定更聪明、更公平的管制条例。 Maine unfairly targets legal cannabis growers with harsh penalties, critics say, urging smarter, fairer regulations.

缅因州惩罚有执照的大麻种植者的比例过高,这些种植者在取缔非法种植期间遵守法律,对纳税和支助社区的守法小企业和照顾者实行更严格的条例。 Maine is disproportionately punishing licensed cannabis growers who follow the law during crackdowns on illicit grows, imposing stricter regulations on compliant small businesses and caregivers that pay taxes and support communities. 批评者认为,这种方法针对的是守法经营者,而不是真正的犯罪活动,对入境设置障碍,伤害合法种植者,并可能加强非法市场。 Critics argue this approach, which targets law-abiding operators rather than true criminal activity, raises barriers to entry, harms legitimate growers, and may strengthen the illicit market. 他们敦促国家采取更聪明、比例相称的条例,将大麻作为一种受管制的农产品,终止过时的禁止时代策略,支持循证政策。 They urge the state to adopt smarter, proportional regulations that reflect cannabis as a regulated agricultural product, ending outdated, prohibition-era tactics in favor of evidence-based policy.
