Democratic lawmakers in Pennsylvania’s Senate are stepping up the push to legalize marijuana in the state by scheduling a hearing focused on the issue for this week.
The Pennsylvania Senate Democratic Policy Committee will host the meeting on Friday to “examine modernizing the commonwealth’s adult use cannabis laws,” according to an announcement.
The committee’s chair, Sen. Nick Miller (D) will lead the hearing, alongside Sen. Sharif Street (D), who has long championed marijuana reform and has sponsored several bills to enact legalization.
