Eddie Melton on Drugs

 

 


Allow some level of marijuana use, and recreational sales

Marijuana legalization looms as a likely campaign issue for the 2020 statewide elections. The three Democrats seeking to challenge Holcomb's reelection bid--state Sen. Eddie Melton of Gary, former state health commissioner Woody Myers and tech business executive Josh Owens--all support allowing some level of marijuana use, although Myers opposes recreational sales.

Legalize and regulate medical & recreational cannabis

Legalizing medical cannabis is a part of the Indiana Senate Democratic Caucus' 2019 legislative agenda. Last month, Indiana Senate Democrats--led by Sen. Eddie Melton--unveiled their priorities for the new year, which included proposing legislation to legalize medical cannabis.

One bill would establish a Cannabis Compliance Commission, [to] oversee state regulation of the sale, use, or consumption of cannabis. The other bill would legalize recreational marijuana possession of less than 2 ounces
