The Colorado attorney general’s office says the lawsuit alleges “that Colorado’s Amendment 64 and its implementing legislation regarding marijuana is unconstitutional under the Supremacy Clause of the U.S. Constitution.”


It’s a solid argument, but I think they leave themselves open to the counter-argument that the federal laws must be constitutional themselves in order to claim supremacy.
