The House of Representatives voted on Friday to finally decriminalize marijuana at the federal level in the United States.
As Fox News reports:
The U.S. House of Representatives voted Friday to decriminalize possession of marijuana on the federal level.
The House heard a slew of proposed amendments for the bill, including measures to track and prevent impaired driving under the influence of marijuana, as well as carve-outs for law enforcement to restructure around the decriminalized substance.
The bill passed with a vote of 220 to 204.
Three Republicans voted yes: Matt Gaetz of Florida, Tom McClintock of California and Brian Mast of Florida. Two Democrats voted no: Chris Pappas of New Hampshire and Henry Cuellar of Texas.
The bill now has to pass in the Senate, where previous versions of Marijuana legalization have failed int he past, before becoming law.
Well, since all libtards are heavy drug abusers, it stands to reason. By making it legal, they can get the price down. Their next favorite drug, cocaine, will be next, then heroine.

What happened to the amendments?
LISTEN UP….OPEN AMERICAN PIPELINES. There is OIL Here in the USA. DEMOCRATS are NOT going to give AMERICANS a BREAK. THEIR Policy is AMERICANS Last. From SamuraiQueen. 😄😄😄😇😇😇
That stuff has a sickening smell even for those who don’t smoke it. But kids I knew who got into pot really ruined their brains with the damage it causes. Definitely NOT a wise idea!!
Should have been done 50 years ago.
They finally something, to help with pain
Insane. Smoking marijuana is linked to developing or exacerbating mental illness (psychoses such as schizophrenia) (see British studies), and in teens causes brain damage and testicular cancer, and can instigate suicide if patient is on antidepressants, just all around a bad thing to smoke (THC).
I am very surprised at Matt Gaetz. Marijuana should not be legal for daily use. It will lead to trouble a lot of trouble with any drug addicts.
Bing BONG can they be wrong
In Colorado the marijuana stores cannot put their money in the bank as it’s still “ill gotten gains” so they buy real estate, driving up the prices. So, what will happen to the real estate market? Will it now crash?
There was such a drive against smoking, how harmful it was to your lungs/ health, now smoking marijuana is ok, so much so that the government is for it.
At last, Bill can inhale!
