Mississippi Supreme Court s ballot initiative ruling could open challenges for voter ID law

Prohibition s Last Stand

Prohibition’s Last Stand Share to Linkedin Harshing The People s Mellow: Despite the overwhelming support from Americans to legalize marijuana, prohibition is stubborn.

Today, 17 states have legalized adult-use, meaning more than 40% of Americans now live in a state where marijuana is allowed for those over 21. More than 30 states allow some kind of medical marijuana access, which leaves only two that have not amended their marijuana laws at all—Idaho and Nebraska. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has promised that he and Senators Cory Booker and Ron Wyden will introduce their cannabis legalization bill, but he hasn’t issued a timeline.

Six justices ruled that the medical marijuana initiative is void because the state’s initiative process is outdated. Three justices dissented.
