Dem Lawmaker to Sessions, a Crackdown on Marijuana is “S.T.U.P.I.D.”

Dem Lawmaker to Sessions, a Crackdown on Marijuana is “S.T.U.P.I.D.”

Rep. Ted Lieu (D-CA) took to Twitter Thursday and put the Attorney General (AG) on blast. Less than pleased over a recent threat from Jeff Sessions to crack down on state-sanctioned marijuana, Lieu fired up his Twitter account and baptized the AG’s antiquated idea as a “S.T.U.P.I.D. waste of federal resources.”

An ardent supporter of states’ rights when ideologically convenient, Sessions got Rep. Lieu’s attention Wednesday during a press conference when the AG announced the Department of Justice (DOJ) was looking to alter policies adopted by Eric Holder and the Obama administration.

The policy highest on the AG’s hit list to extinguish is the one that unchained states from federal marijuana prohibition and allowed them to determine their own laws.

Branded an idea that’s “beyond dumb” by Congressmen Lieu, the California Representative questioned the AG’s fiscal responsibility and empathy for the sick via the social network.
