NJ Legislature should hold marijuana vote before April, Sweeney says
With budget hearings and discussions beginning to ramp up in Trenton, the current month might be the last best time to throw a marijuana-legalization bill over the finish line, the state Legislature’s top Democrat said Thursday.
Senate President Stephen Sweeney, D-3rd District, speaking to a select group of reporters in Trenton, said a vote needs to be held this month to hold an election on a measure legalizing, regulating and taxing marijuana for adult-use.
