TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — The Florida Supreme Court said voters will have the chance to legalize recreational marijuana in the Sunshine State in November.
Justices had until April 1 to make a final decision on the ballot language, and they took every minute, releasing the decision at 4 p.m. Monday.
Amendment Three grants adults aged 21 and older "the right to possess, purchase, or use marijuana products" for non-medical personal consumption, including smoking or ingesting.
Similar to the abortion amendment, the justices appeared inclined towards approval during last year's November hearing.
