  • A state question to legalize recreational marijuana in Oklahoma is one step closer to being on the ballot during Oklahoma's general election in November 2022.
    State Question 820 would legalize recreational or "adult-use" marijuana for anyone age 21 or older in the state. If approved, it would impose a 15% excise tax on all recreational marijuana sales, which is higher than the 7% excise tax levied on all medical marijuana sales in Oklahoma.

      The "War on Cannabis" has been a complete and utter failure. It is the largest component of the broader yet equally unsuccessful "War on Drugs" that has cost our country over a trillion dollars.
      Instead of The United States wasting Billions upon Billions more of our yearly tax dollars fighting a never ending "War on Cannabis", lets generate Billions of dollars, and improve the deficit instead. Especially now, due to Covid-19. It's a no brainer.
      The Prohibition of Cannabis has also ruined the lives of many of our loved ones. In numbers greater than any other nation, our loved ones are being sent to jail and are being given permanent criminal records. Especially, if they happen to be of the "wrong" skin color or they happen to be from the "wrong" neighborhood. Which ruin their chances of employment for the rest of their lives, and for what reason?
      Cannabis is much safer to consume than alcohol. Yet do we lock people up for choosing to drink?
      Let's end this hypocrisy now!
      The government should never attempt to legislate morality by creating victim-less cannabis "crimes" because it simply does not work and costs the taxpayers a fortune.
      Cannabis Legalization Nationwide is an inevitable reality that's approaching much sooner than prohibitionists think and there is nothing they can do to stop it!
      Legalize Nationwide! Support Each and Every Cannabis Legalization Initiative!

      Well it's an uphill battle but hopefully Oklahoma will legalize it despite the pushback from Baptists themselves. Even though they drink and smoke when the Bible they believe them tells them not to.

      Cannabis consumers deserve and demand equal rights and protections under our laws that are currently afforded to the drinkers of far more dangerous and deadly, yet perfectly legal, widely accepted, endlessly advertised and even glorified as an All-American pastime, alcohol. Plain and simple! Legalize nationwide federally now! Simple Question for You: Why do you feel justified in endlessly wasting billions upon billions of our yearly federal tax dollars continuing to arrest, criminalize, incarcerate, and hand out life long permanent criminal records to otherwise hard-working, tax-paying, adult citizens for choosing to consume marijuana although it is far safer than perfectly legal, widely accepted alcohol?

    unfortunately this will jack up weed prices and cause a lot of growers to only care about quantity instead of quality. It’s happened to multiple states that have went from medical to recreational.

      I’ve been to multiple states with Rec and matter of fact come from a state with Rec and what I can say is every other state has at least a decent amount of quality control. Due to the lack of regulations out here sure stuff might be low priced but it’s extremely subpar quality. I’m ready and excited for Oklahoma to go Rec, even if prices go up so that way I KNOW I have reputable brands to enjoy and not some shady mom and pop shop cutting corners
