(Washington, DC) — A key lawmaker is planning on making a push to decriminalize marijuana across the nation. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer told Vice News that he’d introduce a bill on the matter sometime next week. Schumer remarked that the legislation is long overdue. He said if smoking weed doesn’t hurt others, it should be legal. According to Vice, the bill would remove marijuana from the DEA’s list of controlled substances. It would also provide funds for research into the health effects of pot.
