Delaware legalization bill falls short of supermajority on House floor

Thank your rep for voting YES or let your rep know you’re disappointed that they voted NO or didn’t vote

Unfortunately, HB 305, a bill to legalize, regulate, and tax cannabis for adults 21 and older, fell just two votes short of the needed supermajority (25 votes) to clear the House yesterday. The final vote count was 23 yes, 14 no, and 4 not voting.  

Far more representatives stood with a majority of Delawareans and voted in favor of the bill rather than against it.

If your rep voted YES, you can send them a note here to thank them. If your rep voted NO or didn't vote, please send them a message to let them know you’re disappointed.

Thank you to everyone who raised their voices in support of HB 305. The fight to bring equitable legalization to Delaware continues.
