“When you see something like the opioid addiction crisis blossoming in so many states around this country, the last thing we should be doing is encouraging people... there is still a federal law that we need to abide by when it comes to recreational marijuana and drugs of that nature.”

Is there a connection between legalized marijuana in Colorado and opioid abuse in West Virginia?

Do we have example of a guy in West Virginia going to his doctor and demanding a script for Oxycontin because pot is legal in Colorado?

In fact, opiod addiction and overdoses have fallen in States with legal medicinal and/or recreational marijuana. Not that it matters to Big Government Nanny Staters.
