Barney Frank and Ron Paul team up: legalize pot

MPP director of government relations and state campaigns Steve Fox spoke with MSNBC's Martin Bashir about a bill introduced by Rep. Barney Frank and Rep. Ron Paul that would remove the federal government from marijuana policy and enforcement, leaving marijuana policy up to the individual states. He explained the need for sensible regulation and to tax and regulate marijuana in a manner similar to alcohol, and debunked claims that marijuana use causes increased rates of mental illness in society.
