New Jersey has 13 medical marijuana dispensaries doing business, as lawmakers follow up on voter-approved recreational pot.

Guidance from the state Attorney General does not apply to anyone accused of dealing pot, as laws on decriminalization and legalization of marijuana still are in the works in Trenton.

Senate adds random drug testing and tests for any suspicion to the bill, which evisions new industry of certified 'workplace impairment recognition experts.'

Senate and Assembly bills have some key differences in terms of how revenues would be spent and whether to limit growers as the industry gets started.

Senate votes 29-4 to decriminalize the posession of up to 6 ounces of marijuana. Assembly schedules a Monday voting session, but no word if a vote is planned.

Hallucinogenic ‘magic mushrooms’ were added to marijuana decriminalization legislation by a Senate committee. The bill is listed for a final vote Monday.

Municipalities can prohibit sales, but not until there's a state law on the books.

Sponsors of the legislation heard no shortage of complaints and suggested changes from colleagues and industry advocates, but plans seem to still point to votes by the full houses before the end of November.
