Delaware marijuana legalization bill clears House committee By RANDALL CHASEMarch 24, 2021 GMT DOVER, Del. (AP) A bill legalizing recreational marijuana use by adults in Delaware cleared its first legislative hurdle Wednesday as a Democratic-led committee voted along party lines, with one lone GOP vote, to send the measure to the House floor. The bill creates a state-controlled and licensed pot industry that supporters say will eliminate the black market while creating jobs and boosting the state’s tax coffers. While the proposal has significant support among Democratic lawmakers, Democratic Gov. John Carney has expressed concerns about legalization. “The governor’s position hasn’t changed,” Carney spokesman Jonathan Starkey said in an email Wednesday. “He supported decriminalization and an expansion of Delaware’s medical marijuana program. But he still has concerns about legalizing recreational marijuana.”
