Three Senators Sponsoring Federal Medical Marijuana Legalization Bill

Sens. Cory Booker, Rand Paul and Kirsten Gillbrand are joining forces to legalize medicinal marijuana.
Booker and Gillibrand, Democrats from New Jersey and New York, respectively, will join Paul — a Kentucky Republican — on Tuesday afternoon to unveil the first-ever bill put forth in the Senate to end a federal prohibition of medical marijuana.
The bill would also allow patients, doctors and business in the 23 states plus Washington, D.C. that legalize and regulate medicinal marijuana to do so without breaking federal law.
The three Senators will announce the bipartisan legislation in a Senate press conference Tuesday at 12:30 p.m. The Drug Policy Alliance, which revealed the news of the bill Monday afternoon, will have a subsequent teleconference at 3 p.m Tuesday.

The individual states would have a say in this I'm sure, Bassfreak. State's rights and all that shit.

That's what we thought when California put it to a vote, but DEMOCRATS rejected legalization. So, who knows?

Hm, yes, funny that both Co. and Washington state have it legalized. And let's not forget the furor the Repubs caused when Washington D.C. voted to legalize. Also worthy of note is my email correspondence with Diane Black(R -TN), who is adamantly opposed to any and all legalization.

Just sucks that a lot of employers wont recognize it. Smh.
Accident at work, get tested (as required by most workplaces), show posi for THC. Still fired. Even with a medi card. Don't make no damn sense man.
