Wyoming: Marijuana Decriminalization Measure Introduced

Posted by on January 18, 2017

Wyoming State Rep. Mark Baker has introduced HB 157 to decriminalize the possession of up to 3 ounces of marijuana. 

Baker’s bill is more robust than previous year’s legislation and marks a shift in attitude among state lawmakers.

More than 70% of Wyoming residents support decriminalization. Currently under state law, first-time marijuana possession offenses are classified as a criminal misdemeanor punishable by up to one year in jail and a $ 1,000 fine. Wyoming should change its archaic laws and join the majority of the country in decriminalizing marijuana possession.
