Delaware has become the 22nd U.S. state to legalize the possession and sale of recreational marijuana, despite the Governor's opposition.
Delaware Governor John Carney announced on April 21 he will allow recreational marijuana legalization and sales amid concern, making Delaware the 22nd to legalize adult-use marijuana.
Delaware will enact two bills (HB 1 and HB 2) without Governor's signature to remove all state-level civil and criminal penalties for marijuana possession and create a regulated industry for recreational marijuana sales.
