Illinois lawmakers consider a proposal to make marijuana use legal in the state. It would allow possession of up to one ounce of pot by people 21 and over. Driving under the influence wold remain illegal and smoking in public would be prohibited.
Illinois has a new marijuana law, effective in January 2020, that would allow Illinois residents over 21 years of age to purchase and possess 30 grams of cannabis, 5 grams of cannabis concentrate, as well as cannabis-infused products, such as gummies or baked goods, with no more than 500 milligrams of THC. Nonresidents would be able to purchase half of those amounts.
