Is this real?

House passes bill

 

[Johiem]

I'm waiting till tomorrow for confirmation. Any news today i can't help but think is BS.

 

[BarnBuster]

Real enough but doubtful if it passes Senate, also unknown if Biden would sign into law. He supports decrim to a point but legalization is
another issue.

Nah, that right there is pretty much a green light mates. Yeah there's red tape and beuaracracy still to run it's course, but that was green light boys.

It won't make it through a filibustered senate. I doubt the insulin price cap will either.

Time to find some new laws of this land to turn my nose up at

The MORE act passed last year too, only to not get voted on by the Senate. Same thing will happen again. It will sit, and they probably won't even look at voting on it.

I dunno, more and more of the GOP is starting to support cannabis legalization, as they begin to realize how much money it could bring into their struggling state economies.

My mom needed insulin but this was 15 years ago and I don't remember it being very expensive. I also see they have been trying to cap the price for some time. What a shame it comes to folks having to skimp on a med that's 100 years old.

Mitch is all for hemp. I doubt he is for legalizing recreational use of high THC cannabis.

Boehner is though. But only because he's profiting from it. These guys always have a change of heart when the dollar signs start flashing.

The Dems don't know how to exercise power. They should bring these things to a vote on the Senate floor and force the Senators standing in the way to go on record as opposed to decriminalization.

Oh man i appreciate your input but im not going anywhere near those 2 words defining a political party...im just super happy something moved forward. When a 435 member body of elected officials representing each state get enough "yays" then that's pretty much America saying "fk your rules and what you think, we like pot"
