A State-by-State Look at Where Marijuana Is Legal
Over the next decade, marijuana could well be one of the fastest-growing industries in the United States. Tech stocks may be the toast of Wall Street this year, but "Marijuana Business Factbook 2020" from Marijuana Business Daily has projected that legal-channel cannabis sales in the U.S. could triple between 2019 and 2024 to $37 billion.
Such rapid sales growth has been made possible by a dramatic shift in how the American public views cannabis. National pollster Gallup found that only around a third of the country favored legalization by the mid-2000s. But in 2018 and 2019, support for nationwide adult-use legalization hit an all-time high of 66%. As Americans have softened their stance on cannabis, legislative action and state-level elections have allowed the green wave to take shape.
However, the legality of marijuana can differ wildly depending on where you live. With the 2020 election now in the books, here's a full rundown of where all 50 states stand on marijuana.
