Connecticut Governor Ned Lamont
MATT DWYER / CONNECTICUT PUBLIC RADIO
Connecticut Governor Ned Lamont

The recreational use of marijuana becomes legal in Connecticut tomorrow, July 1. But much work is left to be done surrounding legal pot, including the creation of regulations for cannabis sale and production, and filling in the details of racial and social equity provisions.  

Plus, the governor has signed dozens of bills so far, but the fate of other proposals remain unresolved. Will the governor sign a measure setting new limits on solitary confinement in Connecticut prisons?

Guest:

  • Ned Lamont -- Governor of the State of Connecticut
