Congressional GOP Blocks Marijuana Votes (Again)
Republican leaders in Congress really, really don’t want their fellow lawmakers to have the chance to vote on marijuana amendments.
In the latest in a long series of roadblocks thrown up in front of developments on the issue over the past several years, a key House panel prevented four cannabis measures from reaching the floor on Wednesday night.
Three of the proposals concerned military veterans’ ability to access medical cannabis without punishment or hardship, and one was about water rights for marijuana and hemp growers.
