Indiana state Senator Karen Tallian, a Democrat, has introduced two bills to decriminalize and regulate marijuana for adults.
The two measures, SB 87 and SB 223, were introduced earlier this month. SB 87 would establish a commission to regulate all forms of cannabis that have been legalized in Indiana, including industrial hemp and low-THC hemp extracts, while SB 223 would decriminalize possession of up to two ounces of marijuana for adults and repeal marijuana possession as a level 6 felony.
Tallian, who has been working to legalize marijuana in Indiana for a decade, says in a Facebook post that it’s time to catch Indiana’s cannabis laws up to states like Michigan and Illinois, and to help right the wrongs of the War on Drugs.
