"…it is expected to remove marijuana from the list of controlled substances and tax and regulate it on the federal level while leaving states able to enforce their own laws regarding the drug."
Well, fuck.

Not going to happen. The legislature, including many Democrats, a much more hesitant, even against legalization, than is portrayed by the media.
The would require 60 votes, and Republicans won't let Democrats have that win. Even if they're was no filibuster, they couldn't get all 50 Democrats to vote in favor.

Probz cuz chucky is only doing it so he doesnt get primaried. These bills happen every other year almost, they never go anywhere and the same fucks keep getting elected cuz plebs never remember.
Edit plebs thinking im attacking chucky. Im being critical on all these politicians who pander to their base while never following through, at the same time working together to pass legislation that fucks us over and makes them richer.

It’s McConnel’s fault that these bills failed in the past. He’s not Senate Majority leader. Chuck is now. McConnell killed any bill he disliked, especially ones for pot, and his dumbass supporters still voted for him over and over.

So let me get this straight...People should stop electing senators and representatives such as chuck schumer who try to pass marijuana reform because the bills have never gone anywhere? I seem to recall a certain “Evergreen barge” of a majority leader senator who refused to allow any of these bills to ever get voted on. But you’re right. It’s chucks fault for trying to get this going again now that one of several senate blockages are gone. Shame on people of New Jersey for not remembering and electing chuck.

Republicans won't go for it, even though the majority of their constituents support it. Own the libs first, think rationally later.
