Recreational weed to become legal in Delaware on Sunday as Carney decides not to veto
The governor said in a statement that the debate has gone on for far too long, and though he still opposes legalization, he won’t stop it anymore.

“As I’ve consistently said, I believe the legalization of recreational marijuana is not a step forward,’’ Carney’s statement said. “I support both medical marijuana and Delaware’s decriminalization law because no one should go to jail for possessing a personal-use quantity of marijuana. And today, they do not.”
“I want to be clear that my views on this issue have not changed. And I understand there are those who share my views who will be disappointed in my decision not to veto this legislation. I came to this decision because I believe we’ve spent far too much time focused on this issue, when Delawareans face more serious and pressing concerns every day. It’s time to move on.”
