Bears01 Posted April 21, 2023 Posted April 21, 2023 https://www.wboc.com/news/delaware-marijuana-legalization-will-roll-through-without-carney-s-signature/article_9963bd24-e07e-11ed-b4c1-abf127f4235f.html Last year, governor Carney vetoed a marijuana legalization bill. A new bill has passed through the state legislature, and the governor won’t veto, allowing the bill to become law. The state now joins: Michigan, Arizona, Alaska, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Oregon, Washington, Missouri, Montana, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New Mexico, New York, Vermont, Virginia, New Jersey, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Nevada and D.C. to fully allow legal recreational use of marijuana, with potentially Minnesota to come soon
Slayn Posted April 21, 2023 Posted April 21, 2023 Congrats to the first state! I’ve never been and prob never will lmao but slay!
BGKC Posted April 21, 2023 Posted April 21, 2023 “Michigan, Arizona, Alaska, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Oregon, Washington, Missouri, Montana, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New Mexico, New York, Vermont, Virginia, New Jersey, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Nevada” the literal better half of the country lol

ClashAndBurn Posted April 21, 2023 Posted April 21, 2023 Can't imagine Biden being too happy about his state doing this, seeing as he hates marijuana and thinks it's a gateway drug for degeneracy. Him firing staffers for it speaks for itself.
Communion Posted April 21, 2023 Posted April 21, 2023 The president's home state legalizing weed while he is vehemently against such.

Governor Carney is completely against this too, and has already stated he’s pretty pissed it’s happening (meaning, the legislature had the votes to override so he’s not risking further embarrassment). Governor Carney obviously wants to be a senator, and won’t have the fortune(?) of running against a candidate like trump, so hopefully the people of Delaware are smart to keep him away

I just assumed they were one of the first to legalize it Missouri beating them to the punch is interesting.
Breathe On Moi Posted April 21, 2023 Posted April 21, 2023 cmon Florida the way I’ve ran into so many gen z’s gathering signatures on the streets this past year that I really think Florida will be next

They did so by a ballot initiative in November: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2022_Missouri_marijuana_legalization_initiative Yeah, the last one left that are blue enough to do so by state leg are Minnesota (happening soon), Hawaii, and eventually New Hampshire and Pennsylvania. All other states that want legal weed are gonna have to get it on the ballot (which I think Florida and probably Ohio will be able to do as well)

Signs are pointing to it getting on the ballot in November 2024. If you live in FL, you can sign one of the petitions. If a $15 minimum wage can get 60% of the vote, I don’t doubt legal weed can too honestly

Have you not seen Coons and Carper? They’re easily the most conservative Dems in the Senate not named Manchin, and Biden prided himself as the most conservative Dem Senator (of those who didn’t party swap like the segregationist Strom Thurmond whom he fondly eulogized) of his time as well.
