Illinois Governor Expected to Sign Adult-Use Cannabis Bill This Week
Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker is expected to sign the state’s adult-use cannabis legalization bill into law June 25, according to a WTTW report.
With Pritzker’s expected signature, Illinois will become the 11th U.S. state to legalize and regulate adult-use cannabis, and the first to do so through its legislature.
The state’s House passed the Cannabis Regulation and Tax Act (CRTA) in a 66-47 vote May 31, the last day before adjournment. The Senate passed the measure May 29.
