Agree. Further, Dems screwed the pooch shooting for the social equity moon. Repubs don't want to be told what to do in their states, cities and towns. They want to make up their own rules.

Dems should shoot for legalization and SAFE. Let the states do what they want. Progressive states will get it done, however Illinois for example has not gotten it done even though social equity was written into their legalization law. Someone/people are dragging their feet.

In conservative states they might not allow rec legal stores to open.

FINE.

Just get it done while you have the votes because once the Senate flips again, it's over.

I'm glad to see a guy like Perlmutter be committed to something, and pushing hard to get it done. But he's up against guys Like Rand Paul, which based on his comment, shows Paul remains a simple-minded toady - if he really wants to know why dems can't pass this is repubs also refuse to cross the aisle and back it, or work toward a bill that can pass (dems as well have some ownership in that divide too). We need a congress that looks beyond self-interest, party, and that isn't happening any time soon.

We are now a government where the party advancing a piece of legislation needs to have a complete lock on its own party members to pass it, little to no chance of bipartisan decisions from either side or a few folks crossing party lines to back a good bill.

Hopefully Perlmutter proves me wrong.
