Kentucky: Legislation Reintroduced to Legalize Marijuana in 2017

Kentucky: Legislation Reintroduced to Legalize Marijuana in 2017

Update: SB 76 did not pass before the legislative crossover and likely will not be voted on this year. 

Legislation introduced by Senator Perry Clark of Louisville, Senate Bill 76, is making it’s way through Senate committees and seeks to legalize the possession and use of limited amounts of marijuana for those over the age of 21.

SB 76, the Cannabis Freedom Act, allows adults to possess up to one ounce of cannabis, to cultivate up to five cannabis plants, to store excess cannabis lawfully grown for personal use at the location where it was cultivated; and to transfer up to one ounce of cannabis to another person age 21 or older without remuneration.

Eight states, encompassing some 20 percent of the US population, have enacted similar adult use regulations.
