Beginning 2022, Minnesota is one of the thirty-nine states that have legalized the use of medical marijuana, but Minnesota is still part of the thirty-two other states who have yet to legalize the recreational use of marijuana. This changed in 2021 when a bill was approved by the legislature which would allow the use of recreational marijuana to be legal for those of twenty-one years and older by March 2022. 

According to mmp.org, ā€œThe initial law only allowed administration via liquids, oils, and pills that are made of cannabis, including whole-plant extracts and resins. A bill approved by the legislature in 2021 would allow raw cannabis for adults 21 and older beginning no later than March 1, 2022.ā€ (Minnesota Medical Marijuana Law Overview 2022). In January 2022, Governor Tim Walz proposed a health and safety budget  ā€œdedicating $25 million dollars toward the legalization of adult-use marijuana in Minnesota.ā€(Fox News 2022). 

The proposed budget shows the initiative to make sure that the changes promised in 2021 will be seen by the end of 2022.Ā
