Contributing sentiments towards policy:
48% : On the Senate floor Friday, Sen. Jim Abeler, R-Anoka, said he used marijuana "a lot" in college and recounted watching the anti-marijuana film "Reefer Madness" with his friends while under the influence of the drug.46% : In the past he said he didn't know the bill would amount to a quasi-legalization of marijuana in Minnesota.
36% : Abeler last year voted in favor of a bill that legalized low-potency edibles containing hemp-derived THC, the psychoactive component of marijuana that causes a "high."
31% : Backers of legalization have not touted marijuana as a big money maker for the state, but instead point to the unequal outcomes for different groups in society and wasted law enforcement resources.
