Senate President Stephen Sweeney, D-3rd District, is marking Oct. 29 as the date he wants to hold a vote in both houses to legalize adult-use marijuana.
Sweeney, while speaking to a press gaggle following the Thursday senate session, said there are “just two issues” remaining with the bill, but declined to elaborate.
Scott Rudder, president of the New Jersey CannaBusiness Association, said at an NJBIZ marijuana panel in mid-September that lawmakers were “98 percent” done with drafting the legislation and that only tax structure is standing as a major roadblock to legislation.
