Well it has already been settled-In Gonzales v. Raich the court stated that Congress can regulate marijuana through its power under the commerce clause. Therefore any law that congress makes, or has already made regulating the production, sale, and consumption of Marijuana trumps any state law under the supremacy clause of the Constitution. Congress does not need to pass any further legislation in regards to the illegality of the state laws.

What we want is Eric Holder (really the President) to make a commitment to not enforce the laws Congress has passed. When this happens it is likely that Congress will follow by changing the law.
