Obama said multiple times he was going to let states who decriminalized pot handle matters themselves and he wouldn't be raiding any more dispensaries.

And Feds kept raiding legal dispensary after legal dispensary. Over and fucking over.

We'll see what he actually does. The public isn't going to put up with any more of that fucking Reefer Madness fucking bullshit.

As far as I can tell he has not voted on any marijuana legislation in the senate. He has voted on some other drug related issues.

Voted YES on increasing penalties for drug offenses.

Vote to increase penalties on certain drug-related crimes. The amendment would specifically target the manufacturing or trafficking of amphetamines & methamphetamines and possession of powder cocaine, and set stronger penalties for dealing drugs
http://senate.ontheissues.org/Domestic/Jeff_Sessions_Drugs.htm#1999-360

Voted YES on more penalties for gun & drug violations.

The Hatch amdt would increase mandatory penalties for the illegal transfer or use of firearms, fund additional drug case prosecutors, and require background check on purchasers at gun shows. [A YES vote supports stricter penalties].
Status: Amdt Agreed to Y)48; N)47; NV)5

http://senate.ontheissues.org/Domestic/Jeff_Sessions_Gun_Control.htm#1999-118

Those votes were both a long ass time ago though, and neither are really relevant to the Marijuana question. All I could find.

He said that the US Attorney General should not accept state level legalization of Marijuana -- AS A CORE RESPONSIBILITY.

Couldn't get any worse than that.

Whether he would do what he says he believes - or whether he would be allowed by Trump to do it remains to be seen.

Lol, they could be looking at very serious shit if they crack down on the west coast. How out of touch they are with the population is quite ridiculous. People here would take up arms to protect their cannabis in an instant. I'm not necessarily one of them, but the cannabis industry over here is filled with well armed crazy rich paranoid people.

Would be crazy to see the the continuation of this failed drug war cause a second civil war... I hope it doesn't come to that but we certainly need some change.

Guns and war is definitely not the way to go. It'd just make alot of heroin and alcohol addicts -- just what the corporate guys want. And it would give the gov. a reason to bring in martial law.

Definitely the wrong way to go - besides being against what Marijuana is all about.

but clearly he's such a danger to marijuana users because the media told them that


he's abstained from voting on any marijuana bills to avoid isolating his
constituency as well as to avoid losing potential voters, he did exactly what
obama did in the senate. he voted present on those bills, only obama ran for
the senate under the auspices that he would vote for legalization

couldnt it get any worse?

obamas administration said after being him being inaugurated that they wouldnt
go after any dispensaries as long as they complied with state and federal laws,
obama's administration was responsible for more than twice the number of raids
on medical marijuana dispensaries as were done under the bush administration...

why?

because on a federal level marijuana is illegal, the USAG is a federal law
enforcement officer, with the obama administration relaxing enforcement on
immigration laws and only claiming to relax it on federal drug laws while
actually ramping it up, dont you think that is a danger as well. the obama
administration has decided to pick and choose what laws they'll enforce and
while the drug laws not being enforced is a great thing, it's not what happened
we were instead misled about it while they went full bore on enforcing those laws

Let's hope that Sessions is prevented from doing what he says should be a core responsibility of the AG, and that Trump continues to hold to his statements in favor of state's rights regarding Marijuana legalization, and of being in favor of medical Marijuana.

In 2013, Obama's policy on Marijuana was to respect states rights.

Trump, on the other hand, is looking to appoint someone who specifically DOESN'T respect states rights for Marijuana.

In a speech on the Senate floor earlier this year, Sessions criticized President Barack Obama for not being tough enough on marijuana, saying the U.S. could be at the beginning of “another surge in drug use like we saw in the ’60s and ’70s.”
http://www.mcclatchydc.com/article115643838.html#storylink=cpy


As I said before - hopefully Trump will hold to what he said about states rights.


"Jubilation over marijuana's ballot wins was quickly tempered by the uncertain future marijuana faces under a Trump Justice Department. “The prospect of Donald Trump as our next president concerns me deeply,” Ethan Nadelmann, executive director of the Drug Policy Alliance, said in a statement. “His most likely appointees to senior law enforcement positions — Rudy Giuliani and Chris Christie — are no friends of marijuana reform, nor is his vice president.”

Regardless of what happens at the state level, marijuana remains illegal for all uses under federal law. The Obama administration has officially adopted a policy of noninterference with state marijuana laws, as outlined in a 2013 memo by then-Deputy Attorney General James Cole.

In the Cole memo, the Justice Department acknowledged the reality that most drug enforcement is carried out by state and local — not federal — authorities. The department's position has been that as long as state legalization efforts didn't threaten certain federal priorities — like keeping marijuana out of the hands of minors, preventing driving while under the influence of drugs and keeping marijuana grow operations out of federal lands — it would exercise “prosecutorial discretion” and direct its limited law enforcement resources to other drug priorities, such as dealing with the opiate epidemic.
....
John Hudak, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution who studies marijuana policy, said this memo was instrumental in allowing Colorado and Washington to set up their recreational marijuana markets. “A lot of people forget that [recreational marijuana markets in] Colorado and Washington were pretty much on hold until the governors there received guidance from the Department of Justice,” Hudak said in an interview.

The Drug Policy Alliance's Nadelmann agrees. “I don't think we're going to have quite the same green light coming out of the new administration,” he said in a conference call with reporters.

Reversing the Obama administration's hands-off approach to marijuana would be as simple as withdrawing the Cole memo, Hudak says. And if that were to happen, it's unclear what the effect would be both in states that already have recreational marijuana and in places where state governments are setting up marijuana markets after this year's ballot measures.

“It could have a chilling effect on the willingness of states to move forward with the creation of these systems,” Hudak said. “It could also have a pretty chilling effect on investment in marijuana businesses.”
