Almost a clear majority of states have either legalized or medical marijuana or both. A significant majority have no marijuana laws to speak of or have chosen to not enforce them at all.

This is a state's rights issue. States are not going to give up billions in revenue.
This issue will disappear in a puff of smoke.
