Same Old Banana in the Tailpipe for Marijuana Legalization – Republicans Block Every Cannabis Legalization Amendment

Lawmakers from both political spectrums proposed these amendments to be included in the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). Despite numerous drug policy amendments being offered, the House Rules Committee, led by Republicans, opted against allowing any of them to advance to floor votes.
