Gov. Cuomo signs bill legalizing recreational marijuana in New York
|
[NYPOST] Gov. Andrew Sonny Cuomo on Wednesday signed a bill legalizing recreational marijuana in New York.
That should certainly help with their current collection of crises...
The move comes after the state Legislature green-lit the Marijuana Regulation and Taxation Act after hours of debate late Tuesday.
"This is a historic day in New York — one that rights the wrongs of the past by putting an end to harsh prison sentences, embraces an industry that will grow the Empire State’s economy, and prioritizes marginalized communities so those that have suffered the most will be the first to reap the benefits," Cuomo said in a statement.
Certain parts of the new law go into effect immediately.
Anyone with a previous marijuana conviction that would now be legal under the law will have the rap expunged or be resentenced.
And New Yorkers will now be legally allowed to possess up to 3 ounces of cannabis outside the home and up to 5 pounds at home — and can smoke pot in public where smoking tobacco is permitted. However,
it was a brave man who first ate an oyster...
smoking weed is not permitted inside schools, workplaces or cars.
