Huge distinction between legalization and decriminalization. Also big difference between legal for recreational use and legal for medical use.
This was less about legalizing pot, and more about the failed “war on drugs.” Interesting that it even made it to a vote in the house, but yes, sure to get shot down in the senate.
Here in Vermont is is legal for recreational and medical use. Dispensaries are scheduled to open by fall 2021. The “private market” dealers here in VT, it seems, has gone to a delivery system. You pay a fee for handling and delivery, but the cannabis is on the house! 😂
You see cars with signs advertising cannabis delivery all over the place. Nothing the police can do about it here.
