Lawmakers in Washington State are considering two bills: one would legalize marijuana for adults 21 and older and regulate and tax it like alcohol. The other, more conservative bill, would decriminalize possession of small amounts of weed for adults.
As usual, proponents such as Don Pierce, executive director of the Washington Association of Sheriffs and Police Chiefs, claim that legalization or decriminalization of marijuana would increase its use among youth.
Lee Newbury, executive director of the Washington state chapter of NORML is all for legalizing marijuana but does not want it sold at liquor stores as is proposed under the legalization bill. He does not think it’s wise to associate marijuana with alcohol.
