Another State Liberates Cannabis – NORML

Can you smell it?

Cannabis freedom has come to the Land of 10,000 Lakes!

The possession and home cultivation of marijuana is now legal for Minnesotans.

But that’s not all.

Officials are also taking steps to expunge tens of thousands of marijuana-related convictions.

That means, going forward, Minnesotans will no longer bear the stigma of a prior marijuana arrest and the lost opportunities associated with it.

For those keeping score at home, Minnesota is the 23rd state to legalize marijuana for adults, and it is the third to so do this year. It also joins a growing list of states that have moved to vacate the records of those with past convictions. Nationwide, nearly two million Americans have now had their marijuana-related convictions expunged. And we’re just getting started!

As we look forward to this fall, we see additional opportunities to expand cannabis freedom in America — both at the state level and at the federal level. But our success depends on you.

“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.”

Margaret Mead
