More states, Native American tribes mimic Colorado pot laws
Clip: 1/2/2015 | 8m 12s
More states and Native American tribes are following Colorado in the legalization of pot.
This past November, Oregon and Alaska voted to legalize the possession and sale of recreational marijuana, and the Department of Justice last month said it would allow Native American tribes to make their own decisions on the sale of pot. Each follows Colorado's footsteps in the new process of marijuana legalization. NewsHour's Rick Karr reports.
