I noticed there is no Vermont thread listed. Since New Hampshire is considered our "sister state" - I decided I would post here...
Vermont is currently (seriously) considering a legalization/regulation bill in the State House of Representatives. The State Senate has already passed the "bill". Governor Shumlin is on board and will sign it into law if the House passes the bill...
Unfortunately, the "bill" does not include individual "Home-Growers".
Vermont citizens will be able to purchase up to a half-ounce and "out-of-staters" up to a quarter ounce from a state-licensed facility. Residents will be able to possess up to an ounce, I'm not sure about "out-of-staters"...
The tax rate will be 25% added on the purchase price. There are also other provisions in the bill...It's not the best "bill". Especially since people won't be able to legally "grow their own". I would also like to see the "Government" expand the Medical Marijuana program here in Vermont...

Looks like it passed the legislature, now you need to get Scott to sign it. Congrats Vermont!

Okay, the governor vetoed the bill but he left the door open a crack. He wants some kind of compromise but just what he would want I don't really know. As a practical matter it makes no difference in my life.

Check out Heady Vermont. They are throwing a big celebration on July 1 in Essex in honor of legalization. We're around just not too noisy.

stinking greenneckers....all y'all....and trey should be lovin vt after all the gifts the state's given him in not putting his ass in solitary for all his pillpoppin escapades......god bless his heart, damn good guitar player ya know?

this is straight, vt gonna be even greener than before, need a vt forum indeed. i vote zappa as president.

any you want to possibly trade some cuts after july 1? i would of course be willing to do so before then, but it's illegal (but for you pot growers, maybe we could talk in PM)........im working with some seeds i got from a guy in the eastern townships, he's been planting the same beans for 15+years that he got from humboldt in mid 90s......ask him what they are and he says "humboldt!".....


i just hope to god/allah/cthulhu/santa that the vt lawboys can keep the asshats from big biz at bay, they're laready here in enough force but if vt culture stays true it should be done reasonably well here. at least we wot have pot billboards ya know?
