Past Federal Law's, where ruled to be UNCONSTITUTIONAL. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 73846800 How did the Federal Government get around this? The Controlled Substance Act. How that act outlaws it is beyond comprehension. By Executive Order, Nixon declared Cannabis as a Schedule one drug of no value to society. How that outlaws it, is beyond me. It could make it illegal for people to claim it has value as a medicine(false advertisement), but the US Supreme Court, has ruled multiple times over the course of a hundred years, "that the Federal Government does not have the authority to outlaw Cannabis". Session's, told a bold faced lie to Congress. Not only a direct lie, but an indirect lie, as it was an executive order form Nixon, that was used to outlaw Cannabis. An act of Congress, could not outlaw it, yet an executive order could? It took a Constitutional amendment to ban a substance that is lethal if you drink too much of it, but a practically harmless plant, can readily be outlawed by fiat decree? Jeff Session's has proven, his own unfounded bias on this issue, is so severe, that he would bold face lie to Congress, makes him unfit to be the Attorney General.

So, are you telling me that Congress doesn't already know the law as it pertains to cannabis? Do you think they need Jeff Sessions to tell them what the law is? You are a retard. Be my guest and challenge it, and then when they arrest you, you can tell the court that "the Federal Government does not have the authority to outlaw Cannabis" and we'll see how far you get. I don’t suffer fools or shills lightly... Don’t gaslight me, bro. |

The bottom line is this- as AG he's in charge of prosecuting violations of federal law, if you don't like that law change it. Sessions is not a selective enforcement guy unlike some of his predecessors. |

Drug users were to be prosecuted for possession and accordingly penalized. Although some block grants were given for drug treatment, the rehabilitative efforts were insufficient to meet the overwhelming amount of drug abuse [link to civilliberty.about.com] 1986 Anti-Drug Abuse Act The Anti-Drug Abuse Act of 1986 was a law of the War on Drugs passed by the U.S. Congress.
