State legislatures can’t do too much to reform the laws until the U.S. congress changes its prohibition against regulating, licensing and taxing the criminal anarchy out of the drug markets.
H.B. 5843, “To eliminate most Federal penalties for possession of marijuana for personal use..” currently in the U.S. House of Representatives would start the process of allowing the states to decriminalize marijuana.
I have written more about H.B. 5843 here: End Marijuana Prohibition in 2008

Decriminalization of pot would free up millions of police work-hours for real and violent crime.
