So, this is what he’s spending his time on? How about the deep state mess in DC.
Sessions really needs to go. I don’t care much about reefer, but I do care that Huma and Hillary are traitors walking around free.
Priorities, man. Dude needs to go.
Out of all of the issues of the day that Sessions could attack, this has to be the dumbest choice.
If this is all he is doing he needs to be fired ASAP!
Sessions should back off on this. I don’t know how the feds get away with prohibiting the intrastate cultivation and consumption of weed, under the 10th Amendment. If the feds can ban weed, they can ban junk food and usurp other state police powers.

“Sessions will end policy that allowed legalized marijuana to prosper “
Amazing the spin on that headline.
So allowing a vice to “prosper” is now a virtue.
You might be interested in this sequel to the earlier thread.
God Bless Sessions!
Freak-A-Forn-Ia will FREAK-Out!!!
Sessions is an odd little man with an odd little fixation on marijuana. It needs to stop.
A great way to alienate millions. Lets hope this is a head fake or diversion away from something significant.
This is going create massive confusion out here in California, with many people now thinking all private use is okay. The most likely outcome? They will simply ignore the law disliked my the majority of voters. It’s been done before. Tyranny by decree.
How about doing what you were appointed to do?
The action is designed to produce a lawsuit that will be decided by the supreme court
At issue....... who has the ability to regulate marijuana.....the feds or the states
I do not know how this all plays out politically... what I do know is that living in Washington, the first state to legalized marijuana that the situation in certain locations has become almost comically intolerable.
It seems like every other day I end up behind a car that makes it smell like someone just ran over a skunk. People smoke pot when they are driving around here all the time. If you drive up beside them they make no attempt to conceal what they are doing. Yet if anyone has ever been convicted of driving while intoxicated by smoking pot here... I have never heard about it. The police have no way of easily measuring the level of a driver’s intoxication from marijuana so they just do not bother.
Between pot and people fooling with their cell phones you have to honk your horn frequently to get the car in front of you to move when the light turns green. We live near a walking path and the scent of pot is almost constantly in the air when we go outside. Sometimes it is strong enough that it gets into the house, especially if we open the windows. It is a nasty skunk like odor. It was never like this from tobacco products.
If there were any statistics available I would assume that there has been a huge increase in consumption. So I for one will be happy as punch if Sessions does something to curtail this nonsense.
My guess is that it is a leverage issue ... might have to take some of those resources that you (Moonbeam, et al) are using to sue the Federal gov’t and switch them to defending your cartel buddies.
