Cannabis delivery is illegal in Milwaukee because Wisconsin has not legalized retail sales. Delivery is prosecutable as distribution under Wis. Stat. §961.41(1)(h).
Cannabis delivery services that operate legally in states like Illinois, Michigan, or Minnesota cannot operate in Milwaukee. Wisconsin has not authorized any retail sale or licensed delivery of marijuana, and any delivery of cannabis flower or THC products in Milwaukee is prosecutable as state distribution under Wis. Stat. §961.41(1)(h), which is a felony at any quantity beyond minor amounts. Milwaukee's local $1 forfeiture (Ord. Ch. 106-35) does not apply to delivery or distribution. The Milwaukee Police Department and county DA both retain delivery-prosecution authority. Hemp-derived products meeting the federal 0.3% Delta-9 THC threshold and Wis. Stat. §94.55 may be sold and delivered as ordinary retail.
Delivering cannabis is a state felony. Milwaukee's possession-deprioritization ordinance does not shield delivery activity, and state and federal criminal penalties remain fully available.
