Support for legalizing marijuana has reached a record high of 70% among U.S. adults, according to a Gallup poll released Wednesday.
Support for legalizing marijuana has reached a record high of 70% among U.S. adults, according to a GallupGallup said pro-legalization support rose by 2 percentage points after having held steady at 68% for three years, with no difference in support between states where cannabis is legal and states where it remains illegal.
“Although some health organizations and political commentators have raised concerns about the medical risks of marijuana, this hasn’t blunted the public’s desire for legalization thus far,” Gallup said. “For now, the high level of support among younger adults suggests national backing will only expand in the years ahead, likely resulting in more states, and perhaps the federal government, moving to legalize it.
Most Republicans responding to Gallup surveys have supported legalization since 2017 and most conservatives have supported it since 2022, the company noted.
