💨 Abstract

In Pennsylvania, a bill passed the state House allowing residents 21 and older to purchase and use marijuana recreationally. The measure, supported by Democrats, aims to create jobs, ensure product safety, and generate $500 million in revenue annually. Republicans oppose it, citing concerns over increased usage, health issues, and federal law. The bill proposes state-controlled sales through liquor store outlets and includes provisions for expunging marijuana-related convictions.
