no grow, but full legalization would make Peter Tosh proud
But this is not a done deal…and I think today is the deadline
Is it as simple as the swipe of the Gov's pen?
The deadline is NOT today. The House of Delegates and Senate can act on these Governor-proposed amendments on 4/7 (the next day they are in session). The proposed amendments are basically what the State Senate passed already and this will again. The HoD has indicated they have the votes to do this as well.
My neighbor is a certain State Senator from Alexandria who smokes out with my wife whenever he's at his Richmond residence and he's been the leading champion of this in the Senate. You all can figure out who that is from the context clues.
Sounds like they should look into TAKOMA WELLNESS, DCs family-owned and operated medical dispensary!
the weed, thread

Look at the big brain on brad!
Good deets, had heard talk of grow in 2024, didn't know it was also slotted for the Gov's Amendments!
I might have to join his Alexandria campaign team…you know the research part
Let me know if your wife comes up for some campaign sessions
I have yet to get the ref to TAKOMA WELLNESS

Marijuana is fully legal here though!! I knew it passed, but didn't realize it recreational was now sold everywhere. It's no Takoma Wellness, but can't complain.
In Maryland?
I think it's still medical with no recreational use/possession?
Despite a surge in cannabis legalization efforts across the country, Maryland has failed to pass adult-use cannabis reforms through the legislative process this year. The two bills in Maryland’s House that would have legalized adult-use cannabis failed to pass by their legislative deadlines

Sometimes there is chatter… is the gop planning to show zero support

Julian, wrote:OK, today is going to be interesting. This is legitimately imperiled. Dems hold Senate 21-19 and even though the amendments much more closely mimic what they passed earlier in the year, there are two reported no votes from the Dems: Joe Morrissey (Richmond) and Chap Petersen (Fairfax). Petersen seems legitimately opposed to legalization of weed. Morrissey is grandstanding for more sweeping criminal justice reform and removal of mandatory minimum sentences (something that cannot be addressed in an amendment session). Interesting to see where Morrissey goes.Side-Plogging wrote:The chatter is positive.

was looking for a Fuck morrissey and this was all I could find
Apparently two GOP Senators are going to vote for this so it's likely passing 21-19 even if Morrissey goes through with his protest vote.
waiting with my bong in hand and the lighter set to kill
House passed this pretty easily, like 53-44-2. Senate discussing now but they have the votes supposedly. Morrissey agreed to flip and even with no GOP, it'd be 20-20 with Fairfax casting a tiebreaker (and supposedly 2 GOP people will vote Yea).
Likely official in about an hour.

The Virginia House Delegates just voted to make marijuana legal on July 1st in Virginia.
ack waiting on the senate :(
ack waiting on the senate :(
Senate went 20-20 with Fairfax passing it on tiebreaker. Morrissey could've fucked this all up. Love to be a fly on the wall to understand how they whipped him back in line.
grow too!
Marijuana will become legal in Virginia on July 1.
House and Senate have both now voted in favor of amendments Gov. Ralph Northam sent down allowing adults 21 and older to posses up to an ounce and home cultivation of up to four plants.
Retail sales still won't begin until 2024
