New York State Legalizes Recreational Marijuana

ALBANY, N.Y.—New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo signed a bill on Wednesday to legalize recreational marijuana for adults, paving the way for retail sales in the state to begin in 2022. 

Thee possession of up to 3 ounces of marijuana was immediately legalized for people 21 and over, but proponents of the legislation said it would likely take until next year for the state to finalize regulations for retail sales. New Yorkers will also eventually be able to legally grow their own marijuana for personal use.
