While Republicans controlled Congress, they should have used marijuana legalization as a vehicle to pass a broader 10th Amendment restoration act.

All federal laws (not just marijuana laws) based on interstate commerce should be limited to commerce between residents of two or more states, not commerce wholly within one state that may have some theoretical effect on interstate commerce.

The Republicans had two golden years (2017 and 2018) to pa fundamental, direction-changing legislation. Instead they did next to nothing.

As to the commerce clause, it should be not invoked at will, but only when a state specifically asks for help. If two states are perfectly happy with the commerce between them, then the federal government has no business interfering.
