  1. Genesis 1:29
    ''And the Lord said, "Here, I have given you every plant whose seed can be sown which is upon the face of all the earth,
    and every tree which has the fruit whose seed can be sown,
    for you it shall be to eat.''

  2. LEGALIZE IT FEDERALLY ALREADY END CANNABIS PROHIBITION NOW

  3. It going up like gas prices in California and those grubby hands upon it they should legalize it but leave it still by the state for they dummer then dog dhit on the ground and bad minds and few good minds at the great dungheap of the capital hill zoo

  4. Nobody is going to buy taxed weed.

  5. Ain't gonna happen. Keep paying for their cocaine & orgies, though.

  6. *plays snoop dogg in the background

  7. its not gonna get rid of illegal markets with an increased tax of 8% added on top of the near 30% depending on the dispensary I know people who think the current taxes are too high and only go to disposos on 420 otherwise they have a illegal plug more taxes higher prices will only increase demand for the illegal market.

  8. Senate gets voted in every 6 years, guess what, this November they get elected or re-elected. Do NOT vote for any republicans in the senate this November as they are the ones holding the legalization.

  9. They allow tobacco which has killed millions and yet call a plant a drug when it is just like tobacco which is a plant but tobacco has added stuff to it by the companies to keep you addicted to it, as where marijuana is just a plant that is grown and harvested and has more benefits then those social security commercials u see on TV.
    Plus the taxes alone could help states in so many ways, and the drug cartels would loose BILLIONS of $$ due to legal Marijuana!

  10. Too good to be true. Republicans want people on drugs. These ppl vote no on weed and then go home and smoke it and laugh about how they are better than us.

  11. Nobody can fill their workforce, they all test positive for weed.

  12. LEGALIZE AND DECRIMINALIZE NATION WIDE ( TEXAS ✌)

  13. Decriminalize marijuana and legalize marijuana are two different legal goals. The first goal is to eliminate possession laws so you don't go to jail for having some weed. Letting prisoners out of jail and expunging their arrest record so they can get a job would be a part of decriminalizing cannabis. Legalizing marijuana laws should be up to the states to decide how much cannabis is going to be sold and who gets to grow it and how much you get to possess.

  14. And then the Senate will reject it….nothing to see here…

  15. HAHAHAHAHAHA, NORTHEN AMELICA SICK MEN

  16. Caucasains maid trillions while Blacks had their families and lives destroyed.

  17. Yea, right April fools joke.

  18. Their NOT doing this for you but for them.

  19. Need a ban on testing for thc too.

  20. they did the same thing 18 months ago. whats the difference?

  21. Stop giving people drug charges over weed !!!!!!!

  22. We see this every year. It always gets shut down by the Republicans in the Senate. Just a cruel April fool's joke.

  23. Now it is time to add addendums to the bill, including a national measure to revoke the driver's license for a year if you are found to be driving with THC in your system.

  24. If your high they control you! I LIKE KNOWING WHAT GOING ON. They win!

  25. Nationwide means Florida too?

  26. It'll never pass the Senate.

  27. Tomato tamato potatoe patatoe blow weed smoke like there's no tomorrow.

  28. if this is april fools 😭😭

  29. I can’t tell if this is a big April fools joke or not

  30. If Biden legalized it, he might have a hope in 2024… If not? Buh-bye!

  31. Overdue especially since Canada and Mexico have both legalized it!

  32. The Senate is not going to pass this.
