Reading green tea leaves on Judge Gorsuch and marijuana law
A couple of marijuana reform supporters already have a couple of commentaries flagging some decisions of new SCOTUS nominee Neil Gorsuch concerning marijuana:
From Tom Angell here, “Trump’s Supreme Court Pick On Marijuana”
From Heavy.com here, “Neil Gorsuch & Marijuana: What Are His Views on Legalization?”
I am not sure there is a whole lot here to get assess, but I surmise from other opinions dealing with other issues that Judge Gorsuch is a fan of federalism and limits on federal powers. That philosophy should generally bode well for marijuana reformers at this moment in time, and I do think it likely that some marijuana law and reform issues are likely to end up before the Supreme Court in the decades to come.
