6 Red States That Are Turning Green at a Rapid Clip

“Oklahoma’s marijuana penalties are among the most severe in America. First-time marijuana possession offenses are punishable by up to one-year incarceration and subsequent offenses are punishable by up to ten years in prison. Selling marijuana is punishable by up to life in prison! But voters are ready for a change. 57% of Oklahomans back amending pot possession penalties to a fine-only offense and 71% back the legalization of the plant for medical purposes. Legislation to legalize and regulate the possession, cultivation, and retail sale of cannabis for all Oklahoma adults is pending in the state Senate. However, Gov. Mary Fallin has stated that she opposes legalizing pot.”
