Even though the Committee of Public Health shot down the bills before they could be voted on in congress, there are other good news in Washington state.
Seattle pretty much decriminalized possession of cannabis. The mayor himself wants to legalize it. Oh and there will be a legalization initiative going around Washington state on March 1 (needs 124,000 signatures to be on the ballot).
Quote from the Seattle Times:
City Attorney Pete Holmes, who beat incumbent Tom Carr in November, said he dismissed two marijuana-related cases in his first day on the job, and several others are about to be dismissed.
In addition, his new criminal division chief, Craig Sims, said he is reviewing about 50 more cases.
Unless there are "out of the ordinary circumstances," Sims said, the office doesn't intend to file charges for marijuana possession.
"We're not going to prosecute marijuana-possession cases anymore," Holmes said Thursday during a public interview as part of Town Hall's Nightcap series. "I meant it when I said it" during the campaign.
