Minnesota became the 23rd US state to legalize adult-use cannabis.

Minnesota has become the 23rd state to legalize adult-use cannabis. Governor Tim Walz signed a 300-page bill that allows adults aged 21 and older to possess and cultivate cannabis. The bill sets personal possession limits and allows home growing of up to eight plants. Automatic expungement provisions are included for cannabis misdemeanors or petty possession charges.

The legalization will take effect on August 1, 2023, while adult-use licenses are expected in 2024. Commercial cannabis products will be subject to a 10% state tax. The bill also establishes an Office of Cannabis Management to regulate the industry. The successful legalization effort is attributed to the Minnesota Democratic–Farmer–Labor Party.
