The DOJ ‘Intended To Discourage’ A Historic Medical Marijuana Bill

“An internal Department of Justice memo leaked this week reveals that in the days leading up to last year’s historic passage of a federal medical marijuana protections measure, the DOJ passed around ‘informal talking points’ to members of Congress that were ‘intended to discourage passage’ of the statute due to concerns about overreach.  The leaked memo reveals that the DOJ was concerned that the proposed amendment could effectively ‘limit or possibly eliminate the Department’s ability to enforce federal law in recreational marijuana cases as well.’  Within a year of the amendment passing, though, the DOJ would decide that it actually wasn’t that concerned after all.”
