“We’re not rushing to legalize marijuana. The American people have already done that. We’re here because Congress has failed to deal with a disastrous war on drugs and do its part for the over 15 million marijuana users in every one of your districts,” said Rep. Earl Blumenauer, D-Ore., a key player behind the bill, said on the House floor before the vote. “It’s time for Congress to step up and do its part. We need to catch up with the rest of the American people.”
 

The bill would remove cannabis from the Controlled Substances Act, allowing states more authority over its regulation. It would also expunge previous marijuana convictions and order resentencing for those imprisoned with pot convictions.

I think the biggest win for the people here would be the expungement portion of this. That’s huge for a lot of people! 

 

Truth, Imagine the net gains we all get if everyone with some dumb ass marijuana conviction gets a fair chance at getting better jobs now, and away from having a "record". Way more important than some herb who's having trouble finding herb on the black market.
