Just an addendum to this thread, here are some references. (I didn't even bother to look up El Pharma political contributions; No reason to.)

Political contributions from private prisons are not massive, but still significant and party specific.

Totals: https://www.opensecrets.org/industries/totals?cycle=2024&ind=G7000)

Recipients: https://www.opensecrets.org/industries/recips?cycle=2024&ind=G7000

Pharma stands to loose hundreds of millions for each state that legalizes. (Also, it's of note that any THC/CBD product officially approved by the FDA is branded.)
