No, marijuana is NOT legal in Minnesota.
When the law is so restrictive that less than 300 patients qualify in the entire state, and some who do still choose the black market, it’s not legal. At the rate our “Legalize It” shirts were flying off the shelves at the State Fair, many Minnesotans get this. The DFL and GOP legislators do not.
No filing paperwork to beg for government permission. No restrictions on what conditions qualify. No more fines, arrests, or threats of prison for adults who choose it. No new taxes on marijuana consumers. Just freedom for purchasers and producers to peacefully conduct their business without interference from the state. THAT is what’s needed.
