Wisconsin Democrats have introduced a new bill that would fully legalize marijuana for both recreational and medical use. The proposal has generated a lot of buzz, especially in Milwaukee, where advocates have long argued that marijuana enforcement falls hardest on Black and brown communities.
But the unfortunate reality is that the political path toward marijuana legalization is extremely difficult, if not impossible. In the meantime, Wisconsin’s current criminal penalties remain in full force while the debate plays out.
