New York Legalizes Adult-Use Cannabis
After years of debate, sudden and swift action in the legislature makes New York the 17th state to legalize adult-use cannabis.
This is a developing story. We have updated this story to reflect the governor s signing of the bill.
Following quick votes in Senate and Assembly committees Tuesday evening, the New York legislature passed the Marijuana Regulation and Taxation Act and sent it to Gov. Andrew Cuomo who has signed it into law and made New York the 17th state to legalize adult-use cannabis.
The law will go into effect immediately, as of Cuomo’s signing, but the actual marketplace is expected to take upwards of two years to develop before sales are open to the eligible public.
