House Passes MORE Act Which Decriminalizes Marijuana

[eagle7-31]

Who thought we'd ever see this day? It is long past due.

The Marijuana Opportunity Reinvestment and Expungement Act passed the House 220-204 with a sprinkling of Republican support.

It goes now to the Senate, where Chuck Schumer and two others are already crafting the Senate version.

Bill to legalize marijuana passes U.S. House, but faces dim prospects in Senate

The U.S. House of Representatives on Friday passed a bill to end the federal ban on marijuana, which has created legal headaches for users and businesses in the states that have legalized it, though the measure was seen as unlikely to pass the Senate.

Legalization of marijuana is extremely popular among Americans: a 2021 Pew Research Center poll found that 91% agreed that either medical or recreational use should be allowed.

Democratic Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has proposed his own bill that would legalize marijuana, and has committed to moving forward with it in April.


This is NOT an April Fool's joke.

Just wondering if heroin and crack cocaine are next. BTW legal grass I have no problem with.

Americans overwhelmingly say marijuana should be legal for medical or recreational use

With more states authorizing the use of marijuana, the public continues to favor legalizing it for medical and recreational purposes.

www.pewresearch.org

As more states, including Virginia and New York, continue to legalize marijuana, an overwhelming share of U.S. adults (91%) say either that marijuana should be legal for medical and recreational use (60%) or that it should be legal for medical use only (31%). Fewer than one-in-ten (8%) say marijuana should not be legal for use by adults.

All supported by your favorite cartel drug dealer. They just love you.

Your explanation seemed to indicate that something natural was not dangerous.

 

[progressive hunter]

Your explanation seemed to indicate that something natural was not dangerous.

at some point everything natural can kill you, even water,,

my point was about something being illegal and meth is manmade verses natural and what the government should be allowed to ban,,

 

[g5000]

at some point everything natural can kill you, even water,,

Dihydrogen monoxide kills thousands of people a year. No one ever died from a marijuana overdose.

Ban dihydrogen monoxide now!

 

[Muhammed]

You have a point.

What I would really love to see in my lifetime is when a prosecutor admits a bag of weed in court as evidence of a crime and the judge orders the Bailiff to arrest the prosecutor for possession of marijuana and tosses his ass in jail with a hundred people he prosecuted for possession.

 

[Fort Fun Indiana]

Does this mean Walmart is going to run my dealers out of business?

 

[BluesLegend]

Whatever freak, you just admitted that the votes put Biden into the office. Oops. Now we all know you're lying when you say the election was rigged. We all knew that anyway.

Dem copy machine votes be more specific.

 

[BluesLegend]

My mistake. You're one of those batshit crazy conspiracy theory nuts after all.

^^^ still triggered because we deny Biden/Dems 2020 election legitimacy.

 

[the other mike]

This is NOT an April Fool's joke.

It might as well be if Mitch and the Senate Republicans decide to be party poopers.

 

[BULLDOG]

^^^ still triggered because we deny Biden/Dems 2020 election legitimacy.

Not sure how your denial of reality is supposed to trigger me. I kinda feel sorry for you, but not much.

 

[Rigby5]

Probably.

What we will have to do is let people fuck themselves up and die, and I don't give a single shit.

It is my opinion that legalization of all drugs reduces drug problems because then when people realize there are consequences, it is just a medical situation instead of one involving fear of the police.

 

[Papageorgio]

Agree
Our decades long obsession with Marihuana has done more harm than good

We need to legalize more drugs, control quality, tax it and use the money rehab.

 

[Rigby5]

such as??

Opium, digitalis, cocaine, etc.

 

[BluesLegend]

Not sure how your denial of reality is supposed to trigger me. I kinda feel sorry for you, but not much.

Trust me you Dems are mega triggered because we refuse to concede the election, to the point of being dissolved by your own stomach acid.

I'm sure Lindell supports the legalization of crack. After seven pounds of brain damage from that shit, no wonder he suffers from delusions.
