Cannabis will be legal to possess, use, and grow at home.
Democratic Gov. Tim Walz signed a bill Tuesday that will make cannabis legal to possess, use and grow at home, starting in August. Possession limits will be 2 pounds for flowers at home, and 2 ounces for flowers in public. Edibles will be limited to 800mg of THC, the main psychoactive compound in marijuana.
Retail sales locations are expected to open in about a year and will charge a 10% tax on top of Minnesota's existing sales taxes.The new law also retroactively softens some punitive measures that existed in the state. The law will expunge the records of anyone convicted of misdemeanor or petty misdemeanor possession of marijuana.
The law caps several years of progress toward legalization. A Democrat-controlled state House of Representatives voted on the issue in 2021, but Republicans in the Senate never took up the bill. In 2022, it was made legal in Minnesota to possess edible or drinkable THC derived from hemp. Certain products went on sale in July.SEE MORE: Many still waiting for promised marijuana pardons 6 months later
