Marijuana is now legal to possess and smoke on a Wisconsin Native American Reservation, according to reservation officials.

[In mid August], members of the Menominee tribe in Wisconsin voted 677 to 499 to legalize marijuana on its 360 acre reservation for recreational use. The vote to legalize the use of marijuana for medicinal usage passed even more overwhelmingly with a vote of 899 to 275 in favor.
