, from decriminalizing marijuana and allowing medicinal marijuana to establishing different regulatory processes to support the state should marijuana use become legal.
A majority of the bills filed for the 2023 session have been authored by Republicans and some appear to have bipartisan support. The main question, though, is whether lawmakers really have the appetite to move forward in a significant way. Historically, Gov. Eric Holcomb has not supported marijuana legalization in Indiana because it is federally illegal. He largely echoed that stance when speaking with reporters earlier this month, but left open the door a little more by saying he would be"happy to discuss" decriminalization of simple possession of the drug.

And I think in Indiana we've proven we can. On the federal front, I'm not so sure.
