There was a bill in the House last year that did exactly that.

Republicans obstruct hearings, even, on these bills. They never get past some pasty-faced gin swiller who wants to keep waging war on the American people.

The guy who entered the bill last year, Jared Polis (D-CO) said he doesn't think Congress will address the issue.

I guess the right wing in this nation can't upset all the law enforcement agencies that would have to actually deal with crime rather than busting someone for possession, and, of course, Republicans get fat donations from the for-profit prison industry, so they've made a commitment to that revenue stream by this continued war on the American people.

The alcoholic beverage industries don't want the competition, either.

So, if this is the best we can get out of Congress, we'll have to go directly to Obama with petitions to decriminalize via the AG's office.

Congress as it exists now is pretty worthless, with all the gerrymandered districts. So the American people don't have representation because Republicans made it so that they get elected even when people don't support them or their policies.

petty dictators.
