Only Carney Stands In The Way Of Legalized Marijuana Now
In an historic session, the State Senate passed both HB 1 and HB 2 this afternoon. Since neither bill was amended in the Senate, they both now await action from the Governor. The Senate votes were overwhelming, and legislators I’ve talked to believe there’s a veto-proof majority in the House. I simply cannot overstate the […]
Is Delaware Ready to Legalize Recreational Marijuana for Black People ?
Having been legal for white people for a while now (let’s be honest), House Bill 1 is set to be voted on today. Second Time’s a Charm? Delaware House Set to Vote on Recreational Marijuana Bill DOVER, Del.- Delaware lawmakers are once again taking aim at the controversial issue of legalizing recreational marijuana in the […]
Carney Vetoes Marijuana Bill
It deserves its own thread, and Carney deserves all the vitriol we can throw at him. This veto defines his administration and who he is. Legalization is inevitable. We’ll likely just have to wait for a new governor–one who comes out, says they support legalization and will work for its passage. Here’s the article. Let’s […]
Marijuana Legalization On Thursday’s House Agenda!
Here’s the bill. If your state rep is not on the bill as a sponsor, you know what to do. Do it.
Sham Marijuana Legalization Has Failed – Long Live REAL Marijuana Legalization
Lacking social equity provisions, sham weed legalization failed in Delaware. Good. Next time bring back a real legalization bill by cutting the corrupt Delaware way out altogether.
As of today, it is legal to grow marijuana plants in your home or yard in New Mexico: up to six of them each, according to a law passed in a special session of the state legislature, with a cap of 12 plants per household. People 21 or older may possess up to 2 ounces (56 grams) of marijuana, and the smell of marijuana is no longer probable cause for cops wanting to search property, including vehicles.
New Mexico is the new model. Cut out the cops and fucking capitalist ghouls and let’s demand actual legalization. Not some bogus bullshit legalization.
Marijuana Legalization has Won (Nationally)
The writing is on the wall, and yet Delaware’s cop controlled legislature clings a ‘Reefer Madness’ mentality At this point, the question of nationwide marijuana legalization is more a matter of when, not if. At least two-thirds of the American public support the change, based on various public opinion surveys in recent years. Of the […]
Colorado crosses the billion dollar mark in marijuana tax revenues
It has been five years since Colorado legalized recreational marijuana sales. In that time, the state’s seen a rise in its revenues from taxes on cannabis, voted to use some of that tax money for public education and fighting opioid addiction, while also lowering highway vehicular fatalities. All around it’s been a big success. Colorado’s “experiment” […]
New Jersey Harshes the Legal Marijuana Mellow
The road to recreational marijuana legalization was closed for repairs in New Jersey yesterday, when a wide-ranging bill that would have both legalized weed and made it easier to expunge old convictions was withdrawn because it lacked the votes to pass. Lex Wilson at the News Journal tried to assess what it means for a […]
Open Thread March 1: Marijuana Task Force or Stoner Farce?
You have to read Matt Bittle’s story about Wednesday’s marijuana task force meeting to believe it. Rep. Helene Keeley, who chaired the meeting, couldn’t have screwed it up any more if she had taken bong hits throughout. Here, I’ll let Matt do the honors: A vote to release the task force’s report was initially thought […]
Opponents Play Rope-A-Dope On Marijuana Legalization
Cutting red tape for business only extends to providing get-out-of-jail-free cards to serial polluters, not to assisting proponents of creating a new revenue source. Gee, who didn’t see this coming? From the linked News-Journal story: “We’re pleased more time will be allotted,” said Cathy Rossi, vice president of public and government affairs for AAA Mid-Atlantic. “The […]
What Would YOU Tell Gov. Carney at His Marijuana Symposium?
It looks at least possible that the Governor is willing to consider marijuana legalization. Cynics might say that that’s b/c it’s just one more issue he hasn’t thought about. Even if that’s true, though, it means he could be persuaded. It’s better than the ‘over my dead body’ line in the sand drawn by Jack […]
