Looks like the Senate bill has gotten better. There is some good and some bad. They’re cutting back on home grow and max potency for extracts. They’re expunging all convictions on possession of 2.5oz or less, and I think most importantly, allowing people to buy from medical dispensaries for recreational use. Right now, it’s legal to possess, but illegal to sell. This should fix that loophole.

    Eh. I have no opinion on this change.

    Higher tax rate has an obvious benefit. Except that more is going to county jail construction?

    Not sure what they plan to accomplish changing the amount that people can grow. People have been hiding growing pot for years. I guess this is a way to make sure people keep hiding it

    Not fucking good enough. They’re acting like we didn’t begrudgingly vote on something with too little home grow. Also why the fuck do cops get anything out of this? A big payout as a reward for fighting us every step of the way until we legalized marijuana against their wishes? No if they wanted a payout in this they should’ve tried to slip it into the law. Hell we wanted marijuana so much we might’ve let them.
