Legalization: First-Ever Marijuana Legalization Bill Introduced in U.S. Congress

Hip Hip Hurrah! Go Barney and company!

Law Enforcement Against Prohibition: First-Ever Marijuana Legalization Bill Introduced in U.S. Congress: "The first-ever Congressional bill to let states legalize marijuana will be introduced in the U.S. House by a bipartisan coalition of lawmakers on Thursday, and a group of police and judges who fought on the front lines of the failed 'war on drugs' is announcing its support. ...

The bill, sponsored by Rep. Barney Frank (D-MA) and Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX), would essentially end the federal government's bullying of states when it comes to marijuana policy reform. Initial co-sponsors include Rep. Steve Cohen (D-TN), Rep. John Conyers (D-MI), Rep. Barbara Lee (D-CA) and Rep. Jared Polis (D-CO)."
