Members of the Oregon House and Senate have given final approval to two separate legislative measures, Senate Bill 40 and Senate Bill 82, to reduce penalties related to certain marijuana possession offenses.
Senate Bill 40 amends the criminal code to reclassify marijuana offenses involving the possession of over one ounce, but less than four ounces of marijuana, from a felony offense punishable by up to 10 years in prison, to a Class B misdemeanor. It also reclassifies offenses involving the possession of less than 1/4 ounce of hashish from a felony to a Class B misdemeanor. The measure also reduces the fine presently associated with civil violations involving the possession of less than one ounce of marijuana.
Senate Bill 82 eliminates the suspension of driving privileges for those cited civilly for possessing an ounce or less of marijuana.
Both bills now await action from Democrat Gov. John Kitzhaber. If signed into law, the changes will take effect immediately upon passage.
Yeesh, $650 fine for under an ounce? My weed fine in Oklahoma of all places was only $500. That seems pretty steep for it being Oregon of all places.
It’s better than a felony.
oregon quit being a bitch and legalize it
I live in Oregon and I have been caught with less than an OZ 3times this year and have just received a ‘warning’ every time. Tho cops didn’t even take my pot. I have no medical card and have never had an issue. IMO the police around here seem to be ahead of our legislators.
I love weed
