It's true that Trump has signaled for an end to the federal ban on marijuana, and that U.S. attorneys have since stopped targeting marijuana companies that are in legal states. However, this status quo was set by Obama-era rules (the "Cole memo" [0]). It's still up to President Trump to actually push through the legislation, which he has not been great at. But his public stance is definitely non-trivial, as it encourages those on the Republican side to support legislation that ends the federal ban, no matter what Attorney Sessions pushes for. Also, Sessions may at this point be seen as a lame duck anyway. [0] http://www.latimes.com/politics/la-na-pol-trump-marijuana-20... |
