Mr. Kellen Russoniello:

In Oregon, under United States federal law marijuana remains a schedule 1 substance that is illegal, but under Oregon state law cannabis is legal to possess up to a certain amount and there are state-regulated dispensaries where cannabis can be accessed. There is also a civil violation for use of cannabis in public, so one cannot be arrested for that but he or she can be fined - I think up to $1,000 - for the use of cannabis in public. Because possession remained unlawful that was not something measure 110 thought was necessary to have a separate public possession or use penalty.
