John Fetterman is pushing for marijuana legalization and lobbying President Biden to remove it from narcotics schedule as enthusiasts of the drug celebrate de facto marijuana holiday 4/20.
Sen. John Fetterman, D-Penn., made his case for marijuana legalization ahead of April 20, known as a holiday of sorts for those who enjoy smoking or otherwise consuming the drug. 'Right now, we're doing this interview in Washington, D.C., and right now I could leave go buy marijuana legally,' Fetterman told Fox News Digital in an interview on Friday.
According to the National Conference of State Legislatures, marijuana in small amounts has been made legal for recreational use by adults in 24 states, as well as Washington, D.C., and two U.S. territories. 'Any adult should be allowed to do that legally without any criminal … blowback,' the Pennsylania senator said.
