About 60 people turned out Saturday in McKeesport to share their opinions on the potential legalization of marijuana with Lt. Governor John Fetterman.
Fetterman is on a listening tour that will stop in every Pennsylvanian county to hear from residents what they think about legalizing or decriminalizing recreational marijuana.
The 62nd county of Fetterman’s tour brought him to Penn State Greater Allegheny. State Rep. Austin Davis, D-McKeesport, and state Sen. Jim Brewster, D-McKeesport, also attended.
Fetterman said some people are passionately in favor of legalizing marijuana and some are just as passionate against it, but he’s never had to call for civility during one of his stops.
