House Voting on Legalizing Marijuana Friday

Rob, not so fast. That is a bill introduced at the federal level to decriminalize marijuana possession and production as a federal crime. It may not even get a vote, especially in a lame duck Congress. Further, this bill has nothing to do with legalization at the Kentucky state legislative level. Even if this bill passed the federal level marijuana possession and production would still be illegal under Kentucky law until a bill is introduced and passed in the Kentucky legislature.
