Beacon Hill Reaches Compromise On Recreational Marijuana Bill

Beacon Hill lawmakers have hammered out a compromise over contentious changes to the state's voter-approved recreational marijuana bill. It's 17 days after their self-imposed deadline of June 30 to deliver a bill to Governor Baker.

House and Senate lawmakers had been at odds over a number of the changes, including issues around local control and how much to tax recreational pot sales.
