Mr. McConnell took issue with the sheer number of times the new House bill mentions marijuana and criticized its requirement that the government study diversity within the nation’s cannabis industry, signaling the package is unlikely to fare well if considered in the Senate.
“The word ‘cannabis’ appears in the bill 68 times. More times than the word ‘job’ and four times as many as the word ‘hire’,” Mr. McConnell complained.
“Maybe it’s best if House Democrats focus on cannabis studies and leave economics to the rest of us,” he said on the Senate floor. “This is a totally unserious effort.”

Why do you think they call it DOPE?
Also need a picture or video of South Park’s Towelly!
“study diversity within the nation’s cannabis industry”
Remember the old “legalize it, regulate it, and tax it” bit? This is the “regulate it” part coming to life.
This is a state’s rights issue and goes against federal law. It should not be included in the federal budget at all.
There’s so much stupid crap in this bill it is difficult to keep track of it all. You have the massive tax breaks for the super rich, including allowing wealthy investors to claim the EITC, now they want to spend money on studying diversity in marijuana sales. To call the Democrats a joke is an understatement.
So if you guys don't like the bill, roll it up and smoke it. Maybe they replaced earth friendly soy ink with, uh, something else.
It would take hours to read off all the boogers packed into this latest Nancy sandwich. Say no to the entire thing and stop spending money.
He should rip those pages up on the Senate floor.
