State leaders in New York failed to reach a consensus Wednesday on key details in the state's plan to legalize recreational marijuana, flattening a final push from Democratic leaders hoping to pass an agreement this year.
Sen. Liz Krueger, a Manhattan Democrat who sponsored the bill, confirmed in a statement on Wednesday that the legislation will not pass this year. The New York State Assembly's legislative session began in January and was scheduled to end on Wednesday."It is clear now that MRTA is not going to pass this session. We came very close to crossing the finish line, but we ran out of time," Krueger said, referring to the Marijuana Regulation and Taxation Act.
