At the stroke of midnight, recreational marijuana became legal in Ohio.
Voters approved last month that adults 21 and older are allowed to use and grow cannabis.
However, Ohio Republicans may be putting the brakes on it.
On Monday, Ohio Senate Republicans proposed banning at-home growing, increasing the substance’s tax rate, and altering how those taxes get distributed.
The ballot measure, dubbed Issue 2, passed on the Nov. 7 election with 57% of the vote - but since it is a citizen’s vote, the legislature is allowed to make tweaks to the law.
True. Is it possible to take this to the Supreme Court and claim violation of rights?
You mean the majority republican USSC that has already done some pretty insanely right-wing things like get rid of well established Roe v. Wade ruling on behalf of their party???
Issue with this is it takes a long time, and during that period of time, a bunch of conservative justices can be (and have been) appointed.
