A democratic assemblyman for the state of California Tom Ammiano proposes legalizing marijuana to help California’s economy recuperate. “It looks very bleak, with layoff and foreclosures, and schoolsclosing or trying to operate four days a week.

Legalizing pot would put a stop to the arrest, prosecution and imprison of nonviolent offenders saving the state 1 billion a year.
