Federal Cannabis Policy Update - According to Sen. Rand Paul, Attorney General Jeff Sessions has privately reassured Republican senators that he is not considering a major shift in marijuana enforcement after all. "He told me he would have some respect for states' rights on these things. And so I'll be very unhappy if the federal government decides to go into Colorado and Washington and all of these places. And that's not the [what] my interpretation of my conversation with him was. That this wasn't his intention," said Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) in an interview.
