SB 753 — Cannabis Analysis

Senate Bill 753 amends the Cannabis Control Act to eliminate the misdemeanor and felony penalties for possessing less than 30 grams of cannabis or fewer than 20 cannabis plants for people over the age of 21. These penalties would still apply to possession of cannabis by individuals younger than 21. This reclassification would result in fewer incarcerations overall and reduce probation and supervision costs.
