Thinking about getting cannabis in DC? Here's a simple and legal way, cut through the myths, and explained clearly for today’s bold but savvy resident.
Understanding DC Law Basics
In Washington, DC, adults 21+ can legally possess up to 2 ounces of cannabis and gift up to 1 ounce—all thanks to Initiative 71, passed in 2014 and enacted in 2015 (Wikipedia).
However, selling and distributing cannabis remains technically illegal, which led to the emergence of the gifting model—an innovative legal workaround allowing businesses to include cannabis as a “gift” with the purchase of other items . That said, DC has started cracking down on unlicensed gifting storefronts as it moves toward a regulated market (The Washington Post).
