Bill Summary
This bill would legalize the possession of six or fewer marijuana plants, subject to the enactment of legislation that legalizes the personal use of marijuana or cannabis. Assembly, No. 21(2R), the "Cannabis Regulatory, Enforcement Assistance, and Marketplace Modernization Act," would legalize personal use. A-21(2R) was substituted for identical bill Senate, No. 21(2R) on December 17, 2020, and passed both Houses. The bill is currently on the Governor's desk. However, A-21(2R) would not allow the "home grow" of marijuana for personal use. This bill would allow "home grow" in an amount of up to six marijuana plants.
