‘Sign Here’ If You Want Legal Recreational Minnesota Marijuana

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz is giving the people a chance to sign a petition for legalizing adult-use cannabis. Here's how it works.

You can add your name to get legalized recreational marijuana in Minnesota by filling out a brief online petition.

The website states...

It's time for us to follow common sense and harness the proven benefits of legalizing adult-use cannabis from expanding our economy, improving our criminal justice system, creating good-paying jobs across our state, and creating more space for law enforcement to focus on violent crime.

Add your name if you agree that Minnesotans deserve the freedom to make responsible decisions about cannabis use themselves.”

Minnesota lawmakers produced a bill to legalize recreational pot in the state. The bill includes...

• Cannabis is only legal for people 21 and older.
• Cannabis can be consumed in private residences, places with licenses, or permitted events.
• Cannabis cannot be consumed in a motor vehicle.
• Safeguards would be included to prevent children from accessing cannabis and cannabis products.
• Minnesota would collect an 8% tax in addition to the sales tax revenue.
• An Office of Cannabis Management would be created to oversee related laws and regulations.
• Low-level marijuana offenses and convictions would be cleared from people's records.
