There is really only one Senator that is holding up all cannabis legislation in the Senate. Senator Crapo from Idaho is in charge of the rules committee and is responsible for bringing bills up for a Senate vote. He simply refuses to bring up any bill that has to do with cannabis. Simple as that, no cannabis legislation will get brought up for a vote in the Senate. The SAFE banking act has been waiting for a Senate vote for more than a year. So say 80% of Senators are in favor of say the SAFE banking act, it will never get a Senate vote with Crapo as the head of the rules committee. Only way to get Crapo out at the moment would be to have the Democrats win control of the Senate and appoint a new head of the rules committee. Our Democracy was founded on the VOTE. For one person to deny the most important part of our democracy is un American and should not be allowed. There should be a time limit as to how long a bill can sit on the rules committee desk before it must be brought up for a vote.
