This is just the simple medical marijuana and recreational marijuana map, updated in April 2023 for the addition of Delaware. Soon, I’ll have to update it for Minnesota.
I know all y’all don’t see how the pendulum could ever swing back now on marijuana legalization. But I have very good friends in marijuana legalization who were certain it would be legal by 1980. I also remember well how ubiquitous cigarette smoking used to be, and not a single cigarette smoker was arrested to make it the huge taboo it is today.
Back when marijuana was strictly illegal, when the mere smell of it would draw police attention, when simply being caught in possession of it meant immediate arrest, there was a proliferation of illegal weed stores in New York City. But now, when the smell and possession of weed is legal, law enforcement’s going to really crack down.
