SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (AP) - Illinois' new governor delivered on a top campaign promise Tuesday by signing legislation legalizing small amounts of marijuana for recreational use, the 11th state to do so and the first to implement a comprehensive statewide cannabis marketplace designed by legislators.
Legalization in Illinois also means that nearly 800,000 people with criminal records for purchasing or possessing 30 grams of marijuana or less may have those records expunged, a provision minority lawmakers and interest groups demanded.

DeleteThis is not going to be a good thing at all. Although I do find it humorous that not one of these pot dispensers are in any of the ghettos. it's almost as if the legislators made a deal with the drug dealers in those areas that they would not intentionally try to hurt their business
ReplyDeleteTOllway tolls were to be eliminated in the 60's when the tollway was paid for.
