This Week in Politics: Last Push for NJ Weed Bill

The New Jersey Senate and Assembly are scheduled to vote on a bill to legalize adult-use, or recreational, marijuana in the state on Monday.

The legislation has provided a rare opportunity for a unified front among the state's top Democrats. Governor Phil Murphy campaigned on legalizing and taxing pot and has pushed for the issue since his election. His sometime sparring partners, State Senate President Steve Sweeney and Assembly Speaker Craig Coughlin are also on board.

But, as the governor himself acknowledged this week, the outcome of that vote is far from certain.

For the latest on the bill, we're joined by Carly Sitrin. She wrote an explainer on what's in the bill for NJ Spotlight.

Speaking with David Furst, she said, "I tend to believe that they wouldn't put it up (for a vote) unless they thought they had the votes there. But as these days are ticking by, it's really going to come down to the 11^th hour on this to see where people fall."
