The problem for Harris is that getting a joint resolution passed (let alone getting the president to sign it) before the review period elapses would be much tougher to accomplish than attaching a rider to a must-pass spending bill at the end of a legislative session. So he will continue to insist that his rider not only blocks the D.C. Councils plans to license and regulate marijuana businesses but also nullifies Initiative 71, even though there seems to be a strong legal case that hes wrong. Assuming Harris is wrong, will legal chaos ensue? Harris and Pitts worry that individuals possessing an amount of marijuana legal by District law could find themselves arrested and prosecuted after they walk into a federal building or step into a federal park. But the same sort of potential exists in states that legalize marijuana. #cannabis #marijuana #mmj #medical
