ILLINOIS (RFD) — The path forward for legalized marijuana is growing clearer. This weekend Governor JB Pritzker laid an agreed upon framework for legal weed in Illinois. The drug would be legal to have if you have purchased from a licensed dispensary, if you’re over 21 and you hold no more than one ounce at a time. The plan also lays out the option for adults to grow their own and expunge some marijuana convictions. Pritzker says with Illinois having taken it’s time to legalize marijuana they have been able to use other states successes as a pathway.
The bill is being introduced today at the State House.
