URGENT: Congress votes on state cannabis laws !
    #21757350 - 06/03/15 01:05 PM (8 years, 7 months ago)

"Congress may vote as soon as tonight on the McClintock-Polis amendment, which would prohibit the Department of Justice, including the Drug Enforcement Administration, from spending funds to interfere with state-legal marijuana laws. This amendment would renew similar legislation passed last year to protect medical marijuana, and would expand it to include regulated marijuana for personal use as well"

Email your representative and urge them to vote YES on the McClintock-Polis amendment.
Call your member of Congress this afternoon to ask for a YES vote on the McClintock-Polis.
Or
"the U.S. Capitol Switchboard at 202-224-3121 and let your congressman know to vote YES!"

I doubt it passes but that would be dope. I think more states would dive in if there were assurances the Feds would stay away.

It was narrowly defeated, like 222-206.  And even then, the other chamber would have to pass it, as well as the President.

Still, I don't think a lot of people realized how significant this amendment would have been.  It was essentially legalization at the federal level as far as I'm aware (without the de-scheduling though).

"The bipartisan Rohrabacher-Farr amendment protecting medical marijuana laws passed 242 to 186, and the McClintock-Polis amendment protecting all state marijuana laws lost 206 to 222.

This is the second year in a row we helped pass the Rohrabacher-Farr amendment, as its protections were about to expire if it wasn’t passed again.

And this is the first year the McClintock-Polis amendment protecting all state marijuana laws was introduced. Considering this is the first vote ever to completely end marijuana prohibition,
the results are very encouraging. With enough work and grassroots pressure I believe we can win this vote next year. "

See who voted for Rohrabacher-Farr amendment here, and for the McClintock-Polis amendment here

The House also overwhelmingly voted to protect state hemp laws 282 to 146, and CBD laws 297 to 130.
