	"description": "On December 21st, 2021 the Long Beach City Council voted to opt-out of retail cannabis sales. Since then a group of residents have been organizing to persuade the city council to reverse their opt-in and allow retail dispensaries and consumption sites. The City of Long Beach is facing a fiscal crisis and is actively looking at potential sources of revenue. If the city opts-in to retail dispensaries and consumption sites, there would be a local 4% tax on each sale that would go directly to the city. Long Beach cannot afford to turn down that revenue, and their proposals of raising the price of beach passes or installing parking meters in the central district would be a disproportionate harm to residents. Sign our petition today to tell Long Beach City Council to opt-in to recreational cannabis dispensaries and sales, and save our city from financial ruin!",
