At the stroke of midnight, recreational marijuana became legal in Ohio.
Voters approved last month that adults 21 and older are allowed to use and grow cannabis.
However, Ohio Republicans may be putting the brakes on it.
On Monday, Ohio Senate Republicans proposed banning at-home growing, increasing the substance’s tax rate, and altering how those taxes get distributed.
The ballot measure, dubbed Issue 2, passed on the Nov. 7 election with 57% of the vote - but since it is a citizen’s vote, the legislature is allowed to make tweaks to the law.
Take them back to court and, on I’m not an attorney but there has to be some penalties the Supreme Court can hand down for ignoring what they say.
Maybe present alternate voting maps and ask the Supreme Court to put those into place.
Also ask for jail time for those that ignored the Supreme Court the last time
Again not an attorney but it seems to me that there has to be an option.
This requires enforcement, and Republicans don’t enforce rules on each other. It’s a big club and we’re not in it.
True. Is it possible to take this to the Supreme Court and claim violation of rights?

Issue with this is it takes a long time, and during that period of time, a bunch of conservative justices can be (and have been) appointed.
