Cannabis Commissioner Jennifer Flanagan, who served in the Massachusetts Legislature for almost 15 years before her appointment, will resign from the regulatory role at the end of the month, four months before her term is due to end.
When Flanagan leaves the CCC on April 30, she will be the fourth original member of the five-person commission to have left the agency in the last year. Her resignation will create a vacancy that Governor Charlie Baker will have to fill with someone who has a background in public health, mental health, substance use, or toxicology.
