TL;DR Summary

The Minnesota House passed the recreational cannabis bill on a 71 to 59 vote, and now that Democrats also control the Senate, the bill has its best chance ever to become law. The House bill allows people to have up to 2 ounces in public, and wherever smoking or vaping already isn't allowed, that will stand for cannabis. The other major impact will be wiping minor cannabis convictions off people's records. The Minnesota Senate is expected to vote on this legislation by Friday, and Gov. Tim Walz says he would sign it.
