Gov. Ned Lamont on Thursday appointed the first five members of the state’s new Social Equity Council for marijuana that will help encourage people in communities historically targeted in the failed war on drugs to participate in the legalized industry.
The appointments were the first major steps taken toward a legal cannabis marketplace since the full legalization of marijuana took effect on July 1. In all, there will be 15 members of the committee appointed by the governor and legislative leaders, including the Black and Puerto Rican Caucus.

On June 22, Lt. Gov. Susan Bysiewicz hands one of the pens used by Gov. Ned Lamont to Sen. Gary Winfield, left, and Rep. Jason Rojas. They led the working group that produced the final version of the legalization bill.
One month after the cannabis legalization bill was signed into law, Gov. Ned Lamont and four of the top six legislative leaders have made appointments to a 15-member Social Equity Council responsible for promoting diverse participation in the developing new industry.
The council already is facing a legislatively-set goal of mid-August for establishing criteria for research into the disparate social, economic and familial consequences of cannabis criminalization and how they can be addressed with a legal marijuana trade.
