The Delaware Cannabis Policy Coalition wants to:
- End cannabis prohibition for adults 21 and older
- Take cannabis sales off the illicit market by creating a well-regulated system of licensed cannabis businesses
- Expunge records for previous cannabis convictions
- Promote social equity in legalization to foster a just, responsible, and inclusive marijuana industry
During the 2023 legislative session, the Delaware Cannabis Policy Coalition will work to enact HB 1 and HB 2. HB 1 would simply legalize possession of up to one ounce of cannabis for adults 21 and older, while HB 2 would regulate and tax adult-use cannabis sales.
