Massachusetts Question 2

Massachusetts Question 2 proposes legalizing small-scale, personal possession and cultivation of marijuana for adults aged 21 and older. It would establish a regulated market for recreational cannabis, including licensing growers, retailers, and testing facilities. The measure aims to generate tax revenue, reduce law enforcement costs related to cannabis offenses, and provide consumers with safe, legal access. It also includes provisions to prevent sales to minors and regulate advertising. Overall, it seeks to shift cannabis from an illegal activity to a legal industry, creating economic opportunities while maintaining public safety and health standards.
