If you're thinking that because marijuana, both legal and recreational, are legal here in the state of Illinois, you can't get fired for testing positive for it--you could be in for quite a surprise.

Maybe the scent of weed isn't enough to justify a vehicle search, but if a cloud pours out the windows like you've just finished a road trip with Cheech & Chong, that may be a different story.

I'm sure that you'll recall that recreational weed sales started in Illinois in January of 2020. MedicalMarijuana.net reports that total sales numbers, including both medical and recreational, topped $1 billion dollars by December. That’s over 14.5 million products sold, and 25% of that went to out-of-state residents.

I guess all those people you see every day standing in line outside the Sunnyside Cannabis Dispensary on McFarland Road showed up to spend some money last year.

Since legalization of recreational marijuana began at the first of the year, Illinois failed to break a new month-over-month sales record in November.

Illinois Women In Cannabis, a not-for-profit comprised of professional and entrepreneurial women in Illinois who are interested in the cannabis industry, announced it will be hosting ten networking events throughout Illinois in September and October.
