It boils down to the constitution and more specifically the bill of rights 10th Amendment. States have the legal authority to allow for sale anything they want as long as it doesn't cross state lines. The commerce clause Article 12 come into play on this. Its whats commonly called the commerce clause. It gives the feds the right to regulate anything that crosses state lines and thats the point. MMJ does not cross state lines. Inform your governors that you are tired of them not upholding the constitution of this great land and that if they don't start doing that they need to be replaced.
