The event is scheduled to take place at the Majestic Theatre in Pottsville from 1:00pm to 2:30pm on Saturday, March 2nd, 2019.
The tour was announced in late January and began two weeks ago. Fetterman will travel to all 67 counties in Pennsylvania to listen to everyone's thoughts whether they agree with initiative to legalize recreational marijuna or have recommendations.
"We wanted to make sure all Pennsylvanians have a say" said Fetterman.
Both Gov. Wolf and Lt. Gov. Fetterman believe it is time for Pennsylvania to take a serious and honest look at legalizing recreational marijuana. Medical marijuana has been legal in Pennsylvania since 2016 and Gov. Wolf stressed that any proposal for legalizing recreational marijuana would need to be implemented after the medical marijuana program is fully implemented.
“John’s efforts will help ensure we are looking at this issue from all perspectives and from every corner of Pennsylvania,” Gov. Wolf said. “We both want to make sure the voices of all Pennsylvanians are heard.”
For those who may not be able to attend a listening session or are simply interested in providing feedback about legalizing recreational marijuana, the lieutenant governor’s office will be establishing a webpage form to be available when the listening tours begin.
