Virginia
Virginia enacted significant changes, including the legalization of recreational marijuana.
People at least 21 years old can now possess up to an ounce of the drug. Selling marijuana will still be illegal, and smoking pot in public will not be allowed, either.
“This is not going to generate some ‘ganja fest’ at Jiffy Lube pavilion out in the parking lot, because that is smoking in public,” Sen. Scott Surovell (D-Fairfax) said. “Just like you can’t drink in public, you can’t smoke in public under this.”
Retail sales aren’t set to begin until 2024, so until then, Virginians will not be able to legally obtain marijuana unless they grow it themselves or receive it as a gift from someone else who grows it.
