They’re going to drag their feet with this like they always do. So don’t get your hopes up.
b4 u can legalise u have 2 decriminalise
As a vet and a Republican I want this to pass
Vote out the people who dont pass this. Its soo stupid
Congressman only know money. After years of schooling, they frown on getting high. They only move when their supporters pay them to do so…
Weed lowers my blood pressure and my doc won’t sign me off on a card so yes LEGALIZE IT NOW!!!
the president and the government are supposed to follow us we’re not supposed to follow them Christians are trying to take over the world and we must stop them .
Please God legalize cannabis in The UK.
You Americans are SO FUNNY still thinking your Republicans care about your freedoms!! You’ll never learn will you lol.
I’m all for it but it needs strong regulation so large corporations dont bank on it. Large corporations shouldn’t be allowed in the industry and once a company makes 1 million revenue that’s all they can do ir else we going to have large company taking over which should not be allowed
change only come two ways you change it or you force it to change , Decide ? I’ll do the Rest . Quantum Mechanics
Another glaring example (as if one is needed) that the majority of lawmakers in DC, Republican or Democrat, are not interested in doing what is rational or good for the people. If any idea has good merits and good counter-arguments there should be a significant number from both parties to vote on both sides of an issue. This being an almost entirely partisan politics issue is BS.
makes no difference 1 way or another…i can buy it on street without paying tax
We need stop saying please do this please do tht to the government and show them we had enough we want to smoke weed and we all need to spark up and give them the big middle mind ya business finger js
My body, My choice. I can die in a shadow-war in northern africa but I cant smoke a god damn joint.
Just legalize it
Congress needs to Legalize Pot, get to it
pass it.

The Scientist Medical Marijuana: Studying For a Higher Purpose Prof. Dr. Raphael Mechoulam
I never took the House passing it very seriously because I knew the House supported it, but the Senate didn’t. The Senate still doesn’t have enough Republicans who are willing to make a change as older Republicans don’t want the change, so it makes sense. You will need more states accepting it. You’ll probably get a couple more states accepting by this winter.
Can you imagine how many children this is going to save that have cancer then different cannaboid cannabis concur it’s a miracle drug compared to the garbage that the drug companies are giving us
Please Please pass this so many sick people need this to happen.
whole bunch of weed plants on the White House Lond
Just Vote out the old senate ,lets go younger…
Free cannabis to All ❤
Decriminalizing this is one thing, complete legalization of this is another.. a nation of lazier & dumber people
generation gap 🙁
Old news
Pro or Con the battle is over…Time to generate some tax revenue here folks.
Dems only talk about it to pander for votes. It’s sickening! And republicans supposedly stand for limited gov and individual rights yet 100% voted against legalization. Also sickening! This country is a fucking joke with our own oligarchs system. At some point it becomes not worth fighting for.
they are above the law and they must be removed before anything will change they are playing GOD, must be nice.
This would be the Mexican Drug Cartels dream come true, they could sell marijuana in the US legally, they would send it in by the train load. They have an incredible distribution system already in place. International trade laws would require we allow them to send in all they could sell, it would be the end of U.S. grown marijuana.
The Senate needs to get real,Sorry Ala. South we need lotto still …
Just quit talking about it and legalize it worldwide!!! Big money business win! win! It would create more jobs for a lot of people, not too mention all the tags of the money that they’re gonna make off of it trillions and trillions of dollars. Government wouldn’t damn sure be broke, and the social security, and ssi that people draw checks for on the first and the third every month most people get would have plenty of money for everyone plus give them raises every year!! Have money to build big buildings and groups to help people, also fix our highways and back roads.
Cannabis use is as American as Thomas Jefferson
Good grief the republicans want to go back to the 50’s, all the research is positive no bad side effects can’t kill you, kills cancer helps block seizures??
I’d rather have this bill pass than a stimulus bill for sure.
Some time this summer would be nice
I’m a vet and smoke it. Better than alcohol. So get over it
Slow is where they stand. We can put a rush on not calling grandparents and moms/dads by this but can’t get this obvious win done. Ok, guess its ok to go an drink 10,000 gallons of alcohol but still federally class 1 restricted drug for MJ> Our politicians need to retire because they all are older than my parents and well past their prime. Republicans will not be an issue in approving this due to the tax positives
For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (Romans 6:23)
For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? (Matthew 16:26)
For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. (Romans 10:13)
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. (2 Peter 3:9)
just legalize it already. too many people need it.
Biden thinks cracks okay but weed is evil🤨
Meanwhile doctors prescribe addictive and life changing opiates NATIONWIDE!!!!!!!!! WTF
Free too have and grow for your self no fed taxes . No more control from any police a non searching activity ,
It’s fucking insane that the dinosaurs in the senate keep blocking the will of the American people!
Yeah this legislation is 100 years old or do and the government needs to just get their damn nose out of it completely tax the profit make a legal so I can own it grow it and get me off of felony for having it completely ridiculous while it was past illegal anyhow just like so many other laws we have they were past because somebody had more money than the opposition
Come on already!!!! Green is the only way!!
