Pennsylvania Senate committee holds first-ever hearing on legalizing recreational marijuana

HARRISBURG, Pa. —
For the first time ever, a Pennsylvania Senate committee held a legislative hearing on the possible legalization of recreational marijuana.

State senators heard from law enforcement officials, including York County District Attorney Dave Sunday and the chief county detective in Dauphin County.

Pennsylvania Sen. Mike Regan, a Republican who represents parts of York and Cumberland counties, chairs the committee and has expressed interest in crafting a bill to legalize recreational marijuana.

Regan is hoping to convince fellow Republicans to back a bill he's drafting with Rep. Amen Brown (D-190).
