Minnesota House approves legal cannabis bill, awaits Senate decision.

The Minnesota House of Representatives passed a bill legalizing recreational marijuana for adults, with a final version allowing possession of up to 2 ounces of cannabis flower in public or up to 2 pounds at home, a maximum of 8 grams of cannabis concentrate, and edibles with up to 800 milligrams of THC. The bill also expunges the criminal record of those convicted of low-level cannabis-related crimes and includes funding for drug recognition training for peace officers. The bill now heads to the Minnesota Senate for final approval, and if passed, Gov. Tim Walz has indicated he will sign it into law, making Minnesota the 23rd state to legalize adult-use cannabis.
