As a medical user, I really hope she will stick to this if elected. Trump is doing more “leave it up to the states” bullshit except specifically for Florida and no other state.
Best way to get the young male vote to be honest. Isn’t this part of what made Ron Paul popular?
Been waiting a long time for this.
In before it gets legalized federally and then some republican states start spouting states rights and continue to arrest people that are following the law.
I love how it’s a bit of a stretch to back legalising a substance which has become legal in a fair number of states without any issue (that I’m aware of).
How many elections before a candidate is praised for saying something like, “I, unlike the others, am prepared to accept that the populace generally believes that vegetables are part of a healthy diet?”, because we live in a world where the vast majority of candidates are just saying any old stupid shit that is viral on social media.
Those states still have dispensaries and grow operations raided all the time, putting people who work at them at risk. There’s also the fact that people like me, who need it for medical use, are breaking both state and federal law by going from Indiana to Illinois to buy it. It could potentially put me in federal prison (probably not, but that is the way things stand legally).
The only way I can explain such stupidity is by assuming malice, e.g.: “We must put endless fear into the poor people. Our decisions are moral, theirs are not.”
And because of that possibility for malice, it needs to be federally legal.
Cops should not be given tools of oppression.
I fear that cops ARE tools of oppression.
So you don’t give them ways to make it worse for people.
If there was a law allowing cops to drone bomb places where they decided criminal activity was occurring, I would assume you would want that law gone.
without any issue (that I’m aware of).
Not only that, but states and municipalities have made a killing on taxing it.
I will be sad if this means weed is corporatized though
It’s a plant that grows in the ground, it’ll get about as corporatized as tomatoes. Meaning people will try, but they can’t really stop you from growing legal plants in your garden.

I just want Hemp producers to not have to jump through all the legal redtape… We need to make this an important crop again for the good of the planet.
boy if i had rights and benefits for every right and benefit Joe Biden “said he backed”
Boy, if you had basic civics knowledge as to how a president in the executive branch cannot pass laws himself but requires the legislative branch (Congress) to pass said laws that he would back.
We can give weapons to Israel without congressional approval, but not Ukraine.
We can build a border wall violating federal laws, but we can’t have the DEA approve a plant.
Seems weird how being unabashedly evil is bipartisan and the patriotic duty of the president and anything good the Democratic candidate has to promise they’ll try to work on Congress with, reaching across the isles of the literal actual fascists known as Republicans.
Say what you will about the Republicans, at least they get results on their absurd culture war bullshit. Best the Dems can do for the left is ignore us completely and give us Tim Walz as a VP like we should be soooo fucking grateful
Biden went somewhere on this?
