Except it is still federally illegal so the FBI DEA can arrest and charge you. So far presidents have basicslly ignored it. But doesn’t mean a future administration well.
Yeah, that’s why Biden started the process of having them re-evaluate what it was scheduled as. But to make it legal, the legislative branch has to write the legislation.
All the executive branch is supposed to do is execute legislation.
Those orders being what is written by the peoples representatives (Congressmen and senators).
Right now either:
A: the majority of Americans don’t want marijuana legal and that’s why it’s illegal.
B. The representatives are not representing what the people want.
If the second one is true, it is our civic responsibility to vote those representatives out of office.
In 2020 and 2022 the decriminalization of it was voted on. If this is an issue you believe is misrepresented, every member of congress that voted against what you want you should want removed.
Then we need to look at the Senate and vote against every member who voted against it as well.
That’s how the peoples voices are supposed to be heard. Is it the best system, no. But it’s what we have and we don’t have enough people wanting to change it.
