New York Should Be The Next State To Legalize Weed

Vermont and Massachusetts both have decriminalized marijuana, why not New York?

To me, it seems absolutely bonkers that New York has yet to become a state where weed is legalized. All of the health benefits and lives that can be changed. Whether it is someone with mental health issues or a cancer patient, marijuana is very helpful. On top of that, most people agree it should be legal. Luckily a few politicians in the state do too.

"In a blue state like New York, marijuana shouldn't even be an issue," Cynthia Nixon, Democratic Gubernatorial Candidate, said. - NEWS 10

She will be running for governor this year and this could be something that will make a lot of people vote for her. She even continues in the article written by News 10 in saying, marijuana is a racial issue too. Legalizing it could solve that problem as well. We also heard Senator Chuck Schumer is pretty open to the idea as well.

I think we not only could be the next state but should and hopefully will be the next to legalize Marijuana.
