A Little Freedom Comes to Connecticut
June 23, 2021
The governor of Connecticut just signed a bill to legalize the recreational use of marijuana. The legislation “will allow people 21 and older to possess 1.5 ounces of marijuana on their person, and up to 5 ounces stored at home, or in the trunk or locked glove box of a motor vehicle. Come July 2023, people will be able to keep three mature and three immature plants at home for personal use, up to six of each per household.” It takes effect on July 1.
Rhode Island will be next.
