Vermont lawmakers set to legalize recreational cannabis sales, though governor a question mark
Vermont could become the second state in the nation to legalize adult-use marijuana sales through its legislature if a compromise measure hammered out by lawmakers passes both chambers and is signed into law in coming weeks.
While the legislation has yet to be formally approved by the Vermont Senate and House of Representatives, the Marijuana Policy Project (MPP) noted in a news release early Wednesday it expects the bill, S. 54, to pass both chambers.
House and Senate negotiators crafted the legislation, which can be viewed in summary form on the MPP website.
