Officials estimate that thousands of Pennsylvanians are eligible due to convictions over the past several decades.
"It's a good example of Gov. Wolf and Lt. Gov. Fetterman doing everything they can from the executive office on this issue," said Chris Goldstein, NORML's Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware regional organizer. "This is, as much as they can do, it's still really limited."
"This one month window, I hope this works, but there could be hundreds of thousands of people that apply," he said. In a statement, Wolf said he has called on the Republican-controlled Legislature to support the legalization of adult-use marijuana. An effort from Republican Sen. Dan Laughlin of Erie County so far has not advanced.
