Benefits of Regulation

Legalizing recreational use will eliminate the need for a prescription to purchase marijuana and allow adults to use marijuana for leisure rather than treatment. Recreational users are more likely to experience and report undesirable effects than medical marijuana users. Recreational legalization will increase access to marijuana around the country, also increasing the use in naïve or less experienced users who have limited knowledge of the effects of marijuana.
