Over protracted objections from the Republican minority, the Connecticut House voted 74 to 65 Monday night for a bill that would decriminalize small amounts of psilocybin, the psychoactive compound found in hallucinogenic mushrooms.
House Bill 7065 would reduce the penalty for illegally possessing less than half an ounce of psilocybin from a crime that carries a possible prison term to a $150 fine for a first offense.
