South Carolina, Alabama and Tennessee are all fully illegal. Edit: You said coast, not just eastern states, so that would make South Carolina the most likely to be the last of the coastal states.

I meant full legalization, and I generally consider PA to be an East Coast state. I mean, who gives f*** about Jersey anyway? Same with the NE states, but I guess they're all technically just "Mid-Atlantic." But, yeah, even if they're not the very last one, they're going to be wayyyy down the list. VA beating us to the punch is just pathetic.

VA beating us to the punch is just pathetic. Yeah, no arguments here. Like I said before, they still can't do alcohol sales normally here. And you *KNOW* they are going to overtax (compared to other states) here, keeping the black market alive and thus undermining the whole f'n point of legalization.

March 28, 20214 yr New York next. Would be interesting to do a quick population count after NY and see what % of the population is now living in fully legal states.
March 31, 20214 yr Pennsylvania behind the times. Over 20k pot arrests last year. https://www.buckscountycouriertimes.com/story/news/2021/03/23/pennsylvania-marijuana-arrests-legalizaton-debate-disproportionate-arrests-of-minorities/4799716001/

March 31, 20214 yr NY state goes fully legal and nobody it interested in discussing it. I think that's evidence that the game is fully over. There will no doubt be a set of Southern states that stay illegal at least for the time being but the rest of the dominoes are going to fall over the next five years.

The primary issue is banking and that comes directly from the federal level.

March 31, 20214 yr It will need to pass with a veto proof majority. Biden has repeatedly stated he would like to see Cannabis as Schedule II which puts it directly in the hands of big pharma. And this doesn't even take into account the other issues with the industry.
March 31, 20214 yr 15 states are already fully legal, save for a few the others will follow Biden may be able to delay the inevitable but the game is up

March 31, 20214 yr 2 minutes ago, JohnSnowsHair said: Well, that seals it. I am a huge fan of the SAFE act. Passed the House in the last Congress 321-103. McConnell refused to bring it to the floor in the Senate. https://www.foxbusiness.com/politics/marijuana-industry-scores-big-win-as-house-passes-safe-banking-act It was reintroduced recently in the House. The hope is Schumer will bring it up, and 10 GOP Senators get on board.
March 31, 20214 yr McConnell is a doooosh. However I didn't have money in POTX then, so on this I have to say he was correct to delay.
March 31, 20214 yr Legalization will go down as Trump's fumbled golden opportunity. Someone so incompetent was never going to be able to manage a covid response that was anything other than abysmal, but legalizing recreational marijuana was a slam dunk. One of the few policy positions that was widely popular but opposed by Biden, and yet Trump sat idly by and did nothing. What a maroon.
