New Jersey Assembly Overwhelmingly Passes Marijuana Decriminalization Bill
On Thursday, the New Jersey Assembly passed a law decriminalizing the possession of small amounts of cannabis. Sixty-three of the state's legislators voted in favor, with only 10 against (two did not vote, while five abstained).
The bill would make possession of up to two ounces of cannabis subject only to a $50 fine. At the moment, transgressors can be arrested and charged with a crime.
