Lieutenant Gov. John Fetterman is bringing his marijuana listening tour to Greensburg next week.

Fetterman announced on Facebook that he would be at the Greensburg Garden and Civic Center 6 p.m. Monday.

The former Braddock mayor made the tour one of his first priorities after taking office. He plans to visit all 67 Pennsylvania counties to hear what residents have to say about marijuana.

The tour kicked off Feb. 11 in Dauphin County. Westmoreland County is the 15th scheduled stop.

Fetterman was in New Kensington Monday to cut the ribbon at the grand opening of a CY+ medical marijuana dispensary.

At the ribbon cutting, he called medical marijuana “an important industry in Pennsylvania,” and said that while people he’s spoken to on his tour have been divided on the subject of recreational cannabis, they have universally supported legal medical marijuana.
