Senator Harold Jones II has introduced a law to eliminate felony marijuana possession laws in Georgia.

Jones (D-Augusta) pre-filed Senate Bill 254 to eliminate felony marijuana possession in Georgia. Jones said his bill would not legalize the possession or selling of narcotics and that it would eliminate the draconian penalties that accompany a felony arrest and conviction, according to a release from the Georgia Senate press office.

Currently, 10 states do not have felony possession laws on the books. The treatment of marijuana possession varies greatly state to state.
Possession of 1 ounce or more is classified as a felony in Georgia, the release states.
