Maryland sets guidelines for recreational marijuana sales.

Maryland lawmakers have established rules for the sale of recreational marijuana, allowing people aged 21 and older to buy cannabis from July 1. The legislation also addresses commerce-related issues such as the number and types of cannabis business licenses that will be available, sets the amount of sales tax those businesses must charge, and establishes a framework for government oversight. The new cannabis rules will become official once Gov. Wes Moore signs the bill into law.
