NEW YORK (WABC) -- Mayor Bill de Blasio has thrown his support behind legalizing marijuana in New York City. He plans to announce the way the legalization would work Thursday at a press conference.
The mayor plans to unveil how the city will create a regulatory framework that he says will result in safer streets and more economic opportunities.
It was perhaps inevitable. With 10 states and the District of Columbia already on board, Mayor de Blasio says the time is now to legalize marijuana.
