VOICED : Uruguay cerca del cannabis legal

Uruguay's lower house approved a groundbreaking bill to legalize marijuana, despite opposition from 63% of the public. The Frente Amplio coalition secured the necessary votes, with critical support from a dissenting member. The bill, initiated by President Mujica in 2012, now moves to the Senate. If passed, Uruguay will control cannabis production and sales, allowing registered users to purchase up to 40 grams monthly and permitting personal and club cultivation. This move positions Uruguay as a global leader in drug policy reform, celebrated by legalization activists.
