He supports legal access to medical marijuana, and he believes states should be able to set their own marijuana policies with regard to adult use.

What has he said?

“In terms of marijuana and legalization, I think that should be a state issue, state-by-state. … Marijuana is such a big thing. I think medical should happen — right? Don’t we agree? I think so. And then I really believe we should leave it up to the states.” Washington Post, October 29, 2015
