Marijuana legalization might be making strides, but there's still work to be done. Like voting out these anti-marijuana politicians.
Former presidential candidate, Marco Rubio, has voiced his negative opinion of marijuana on many occasions.
During his campaign run in 2016, Rubio stated the following. He believed that there is no responsible way to smoke marijuana repeatedly. He compared the drug with the negative effects of alcohol abuse. And declared that it should be turned into a medicine rather than being used recreationally.
“There’s no positive impact to using marijuana,” he said at a campaign event in South Carolina. “Now, if there’s a medicinal use—if you can go to the FDA and prove that it helps with medicine, that’s fine. Then turn it into medicine.”
In 2014, Rubio was also quoted saying that he would be more comfortable with the idea of medicinal marijuana if it didn’t “have the elements that are mind-altering or create the high but do alleviate whatever condition it may be they are trying to alleviate.”
Although he is somewhat open to the idea of medicinal marijuana, Rubio is firmly against legalization.
