HARRISBURG, Pa. (WHTM) — Several cannabis advocacy groups are coming together to hold “Legalization Week” at the State Capitol this week.
Legalization Week 2024 started today with a rally at the Harrisburg Capitol building on October 1 at 10 a.m., bringing advocates, community leaders, and constituents together to urge legislators to decriminalize and legalize cannabis and protect consumers in the state from outdated and harmful laws.
