Clock running down for NJ’s troubled marijuana legislation

Though New Jersey automated cannabis-related expungements for more than 360,000 people last summer, advocates say many people are still waiting.

Murphy, a Democrat, signed the legislation a day after the Democrat-led Legislature passed what lawmakers called a “cleanup” bill to correct last month’s law.

The so-called clean-up bill is yet another tweak to the state’s new laws legalizing recreational marijuana.
