MISSOURI — On November 8, 2022, Missouri voters will have the chance to legalize recreational marijuana. The proposed state constitutional amendment, dubbed Amendment 3, would revise and amend the existing provisions regarding the legalization of marijuana for medical purposes, as well as allow individuals who are 21 years old and older, to legally possess, purchase, consume and cultivate marijuana recreationally.
If approved by voters, the measure would become effective on December 8th of this year. Just four years ago, nearly two-thirds of Missouri voters voted “yes” at the polls to legalize medical marijuana. Current polling indicates that similar support exists for legalizing recreational marijuana.
The new provision would not prevent employers from enforcing their drug and alcohol-free workplace policies, nor would it require employers to allow their employees to be under the influence of marijuana while at work.
