As in other states, there are still limitations to marijuana use under this new St. Louis law. It is not allowed for use in public or while driving, and participants must be 21 or older to participate.

There will also be a six percent tax on all retail weed sales that will take place in Missouri. The state auditor’s office estimated that this tax would bring in $40 million, at a minimum, in new revenue each year for things like veterans’ health care, drug treatment, and the public defender’s office.
