Marijuana and the State of Nevada


In 2017 recreational marijuana use became legalized in the state of Nevada. Medical marijuana has been in effect prior to recreational use becoming legalized. Nevada voters approved Question 2 in 2016 to pass the use of recreational marijuana. A big misconception is that just because recreational marijuana is approved that means everyone has the freedom to do as they choose in regards to marijuana use, possession, and sales. The fact is that there are still guidelines and laws that must be followed.

There are limits on the amount of marijuana that a person can possess. Also, recreational marijuana must be purchased at a licensed and taxed facility. The use of marijuana is not allowed in public place or in your motor vehicle. Marijuana.nv.gov provides us with penalties for anyone who breaks Nevada marijuana laws.
