Recreational pot advocates pleased with Nevada Legislature's strides

[TexasTowelie]

CARSON CITY -- Legislators in favor of propelling Nevada’s marijuana industry will have most of their wishes fulfilled if Gov. Brian Sandoval keeps a commitment to sign at least one of four remaining pot bills sitting on his desk.

The bills approved by the Legislature before Monday night’s deadline:

• Senate Bill 487 would mandate a 10 percent excise tax on recreational marijuana sales for the state’s rainy day fund.

• Senate Bill 344 would require childproof, opaque-colored packaging for edibles and restrict THC content per package.

• Assembly Bill 422 would reduce the costs of medical marijuana cards from $75-$100 to $50.

• Assembly Bill 259 would allow those convicted of past marijuana-related crimes involving an equal or lesser amount of what’s now legal to have that crime vacated from their criminal records.

But some are. I don't think that it is compliant with board rules to say which ones, but I'm going to go visit one this afternoon. I will put my thoughts on it in my profile page when I get back.
