I believe this to be some wonderful news. I am a resident of the midwest and our cannabis laws are still radically stupid. Illinois is in such a load of financial problems as a state that this becomes a no brainer.

Plus legalization would provide a huge reduction in trivial arrests. Did you know that while Illinois ranks nowhere near the top in terms of the number of cannabis users, the state makes more arrests, per capita, than any other state. This is absolutely ridiculous and needs to end.

Lets hope they can come to an agreement and make this happen.
