Massachusetts voters are getting closer to legalizing the use of marijuana.

According to Wicked Local, the Cape Cod Canal Region, Sandwich, Falmouth, and Mashpee chambers along with the Cape and Island DA and State Senator are sponsoring a forum to discuss Marijuana legalization.

The forum will be held at Upper Cape Cod Regional Technical School at 220 Sandwich Road in Bourne on June 14th at 8:00 AM where breakfast refreshments will be served.

This forum was developed because on November 8th 2016, Massachusetts voters will have the opportunity to vote that would legalize the use of Marijuana. The measure would allow the use, cultivation, possession and distribution or recreational marijuana for individuals at least 21 years old.

So whether you support this idea or are against it and feel strongly about your position, you'll want to attend the forum.  Register with the Cape Cod Canal region Chamber at www.capecodcanalchamber.org or call Adele 508-759-6000 ext 10.
