D.C. makes pot legal, with restrictions
Clip: 2/26/2015 | 5m 49s
Washington, D.C. officially legalized recreational use and possession of marijuana.
The District of Columbia joined Colorado, Alaska and Washington state in legalizing recreational use and possession of marijuana. Federal law still outlaws the drug, however, putting the nation’s capital at the high-profile crossroads of both state and federal laws. Gwen Ifill talks to Mike DeBonis of The Washington Post to discuss the restrictions on the new law.
