WASHINGTON — Reps. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., and Dina Titus, D-Nev., were joined on Capitol Hill on Tuesday by more than two dozen cannabis policy reform advocates as they introduced a bill they hope will end restrictions on federal funding for research into its medical and recreational use.
The bill Omar and Titus are sponsoring is called the Evidence-Based Drug Policy Act, and is their first substantive effort to move the needle on the federal legalization of the Schedule 1 substance since they became co-chairs of the Congressional Cannabis Caucus in January.
Back then they vowed to be "a little bit louder" in their advocacy than their predecessors — Reps. Earl Blumenauer, D-Ore., and Barbara Lee, D-Calif. — both of whom retired at the end of their last terms.
