This week Vermont became the ninth state to legalize recreational marijuana. It's also the first state to enact this through legislation. Marijuana Policy Project's Director of Communication Morgan Fox explains the state of regulation, and how his organization is pushing for greater legalization.
"If you look at polling in every state, and nationally there is majority support for making marijuana legal," said Fox. In October 2017, a Gallup poll found 64 percent of Americans support making marijuana legal.
"It's long past time that lawmakers start listening to their constituents instead of opposition groups or the misinformation they've been receiving about marijuana for the past thirty or forty years," says Fox.
Also this week New Jersey Governor issued an executive order expanding access to medicinal marijuana in the state.
