Cannabis has been expanding its reach over the past several years in the United States, and with it, public opinion has, too, with two-thirds of America supporting the legalization of marijuana, according to a new poll at Pew Research Center.
Just over half of U.S. adults, 52 percent, opposed legalization in 2010 but nine years later, that number has gone down considerably to 32 percent.
The Pew poll is broken down into every generation including partisan divides between Republicans and Democrats, with a staggering 91 percent of Americans in favor of legal marijuana for medical or recreational use—59 percent want both uses legalized—while 32 percent support legalizing it for medical use only.
While Republicans and conservative-adjacent people support it less, millennial Republicans predominantly support the use of legal marijuana, almost as much as their Democratic millennial counterparts (71 percent versus 78 percent).
