According to the announcement, lawmakers in September will debate the health, economic and security aspects of cannabis, including the possibility of legalizing the substance for medicinal, or even recreational uses.

One of the changes lawmakers will consider is legislation announced in June – to be filed in September – which would legalize the possession of up to 25 grams of cannabis, as well as private home cultivation.

“We will be very responsible in this debate,” stated Manuel Granados, chair of the city council’s governance committee, “In Mexico City we agree on replacing criminal policies with health policies. We are ready to hold this debate and, at the right time, to legislate”.
