A couple of my stocks were up pretty big today on the John Boehner news. I had no idea that guy's opinion mattered so much. I'll take it though, the more prominent Republicans that flip sides, the better. We already knew a bunch of Democrats were on board.
In other news, Paul Ryan, one of the small handful of Republicans who have been obstructing MJ legislation announced he won't be seeking reelection. Pete Sessions needs to resign or be voted out in the mid terms and our prospects for decriminalization or full legalization will be very very bright. For reference, Conor Lamb in PA took an R+14 district. If these special elections are a sign of what's to come, we have a lot to look forward to. Pete Sessions is in an R+5 district. He could easily lose his job, and most deservedly so.
