RICHMOND, Va. — Bills intended to launch Virginia’s recreational marijuana retail market took steps forward in the General Assembly this week.
The Senate on Tuesday passed a bill that would allow legal sales of recreational pot to start in January 2025.
Meanwhile, the House of Delegates on Monday passed legislation that would allow a few companies to begin sales starting in January 2025, with a wider rollout of the market in July 2025.
The two bills – Senate Bill 448 and House Bill 698 – vary not only in their approaches to market rollout, but also how many licenses would be available and who could take advantage of state-sponsored business support programs.
